45 letters long and said to be the longest word in an English Language Dictionary, if you can find me one longer I'd love to know. I'm somewhat of a collector of useless information
I just like it cause of the look of terror people have on their faces when you say it or ask them to read it out
I can technically go one better, if we use a particular chemical formulae, it is technically in english, though its easy to dispute its not actually a word.Nostalgia Ripoff said:Lopadotemachoselachogaleokranioleipsanodrimhypotrimmatosilphioparaomelitokatakechymenokichlepikossyphophattoperisteralektryonoptekephalliokigklopeleiolagoiosiraiobaphetraganopterygon has 183 letters.

Edit: Holy crap, it doesn't even fit the page!
I was going to use that one, but they didn't use the full word on the Wikipedia page. I used the longest one with a word that would fit.asgardmothership said:snip
