Well I guess the title says it all, I was just wondering who ya'll thought were the most active 'forumers' in this part of the AG forum. Opinions, that what this Forum is going to be, pure opinions, and yes you can say 'Me'.

Yeah, I think that's the longest.
The longest word is a protein, actually, and it's MUCH longer than the word you said.

This word has appeared in the American Chemical Society's Chemical Abstracts and is thus considered by some to be the longest real word.

Well, it's not English. It's a chemical term, I think. But it's still a word. So yeah.

Well, it was published in the American Chemical Society's works, so I guess that qualifies it

The fear of long words is known as Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia.
They'll be scared of the phobia's name XD

Seriously trying to out do each others words?

By the way &quotneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis" is synonym for a lung disease.

Eh, I've already won. It's recognized as the longest word or term that has actually ever been legitimately used. There are of course longer terms, but they have never been used in any sort of function and are not recognized as legitimate. Soooo I suppose we need a new topic of discussion...

We've needed a new topic for the last 3-4 days. As for the longest word, I have only one thing to say to you. "Oh shut it"

Well :P to you too. Oh, and long word is uberlong... although this little competition has lead to some very informative, if mostly useless, google searches.

I know right? Who knew people wasted internet space on such ridiculous things. Although looking at youtube, I don't think it's in my capability to be surprised.

@knight_34

There are longer words, like the one goumas23 said.

Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis

Yeah, I think that's the longest.


I said non-technical and non-coined darn it. Also, the ones I noted are probably the longest one would use in normal writing to be honest.


The longest officially recognized place name in an English-speaking country is a hill in New Zealand named Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateapokaiwhenuakitanatahu.


Hmm.. That's a place name. NZ!

The one Goumas noted is the longest word to occur in a dictionary.

And then, there's Titin. 189k characters. I'd think some would say it's a world, but it's technical, not in any dictionary and its possible status as a word is disputed.

Why is it's status as a word disputed? It is the name of something.
