I dated a girl in high-school who couldn't say "cinnamon." As far as I know, the only thing that keeps me from being able to say any words are bee stings on my tongue.
And several of the women in my family pronounce "wash" as warsh--but I think that may be a New Jersey thing.

A word that I simply can't speak? How about the full name of the protein Titin? It's 189,819 CHARACTERS LONG. THAT'S RIGHT, 189,819 LETTERS! I dare anyone to try and recite the full name. As the video shows, even with it being said at a rapid pace, the video is STILL over eight minutes long.

you dont have to say what my friend estimates to be the length of a childrens book.
I know a girl who can't pronounce "Alma mater". Pretty funny to hear her pronunciations, since most don't match the previous ones.

Anything you see in a drama movie when any two people interract in a dramatic way other than sarcastic and cynical mocking or furious shouting.
Imagine being the scientist who discovered it and had to spend about five months trying to write down the name for the scientific journals. And something else I wonder: How does an editor or scientist know if someone misspelled that word?StBishop said:
I thought it was bullshit too when I first heard about it. Come to find out, though, it is the official name of the protein Titin.Kheapathic said:
It's the largest known single polypeptide chain protein, so of course it's going to have the longest word tagged to its name. Actually, the name given in the vid is just the biochemical name (i.e. just the amino acids listed one after the other). It's full chemical name, if we're being pedantic would be one hell of a lot longer, as all the aa's have longer chemical names attached to them e.g. glycine = 2-amino-acetic acid. Chuck that with thirty-five thousand residues... yeah. But officially, it's not a word, it's a verbal formula, so *shrug*.Kheapathic said:
OT: 'Cilician'... keeps coming out as 'Silesian'... one describes south east Turkey, the other describes south west Poland... yeah...
Anethestist... the doctor that delivers anesthestics or other knock out drugs. I cannot pronounce this at all!
