Just something I’ve been saving for a slow news day, I was looking up the longest words in the English language (don’t ask my why, I was probably just bored) and what I found was rather surprising to me, as the (disputed) longest word in the english language is an astounding 189 819 letters long and is the technical term for the largest known protein. I’ve linked to it simply because pasting it  here would probably take up my entire main page, and you won’t read all of it anyway as it’s complete gibberish to any normal person.

However, the widely accepted longest, non-technical word in the English language is “Floccinaucinihilipilification”, meaning an “estimation of something as worthless”, which is amusingly ironic. So if you teens out there ever feel like impressing a teacher or two (or make their brains hemorrhage), just use one of these words in an essay. Also, be sure to include a definition next to it in brackets, because only weirdos like you and me will know what they actually mean.
