Bisidualironicityismic

Bisidualironicityismic is a non- coined word for irony, hypocrisy. It is 22 letters long. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.255.2.78 (talk) 04:14, 8 August 2012 (UTC)

Palindromic word - redivider

As to long palindromic words, I recall a 70s-80s Guinness Book of Records mentioning "redivider", which is equally as long as "rotavator" given in this article. Although I haven't located the book, the quotes given in http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/redivider should be sufficient to merit its inclusion here. 182.239.145.49 (talk) 05:24, 11 August 2012 (UTC)

Long personal names

While lists of long personal names are not apparent on WP, because of ease of creation at birth, lack of centralized topic, and typical case-by-case nonnotability, these concerns all appear to be remediable oversights. List of long names has no creation history even though List of long place names exists, and Longest name redirects to Wolfe+585, Senior. So I am creating a stub section and redirecting those two titles. JJB 16:58, 27 November 2012 (UTC)

Constructions

In the section under 'Constructions' the word antidisestablishmentarianistic is longer than the -ism form, being of a nature inclined toward the movement or ideology that opposes disestablishment.

Names of chemical compounds

The article states without source that the systematic name for some protein is the longest word in english. This is a tricky subject, as names of chemical compounds can be infinitely long. If you want to describe a compound that is that protein but with some more atoms added onto it (adding atoms onto known compounds is something chemists routinely do), you end up with an even longer word.

Main title & subtitle = "Words with certain characteristics of notable length - Typed words" (section 7.1) Second bullet point: Longest English words typable using only the top row of letters.

Currently shows 'rupturewort' (11 letters) as the longest word. Please add 'proprietory' (alternative spelling of 'proprietary') to this, as it too has 11 letters. Because of this change, you also need to change the grammar of the preceding phrase to refer to the plural ("The longest English words ... have ...").

To the same bullet point, please add 'pirouetter' (someone who does pirouettes) to the list of ten letter words.

It's not that I doubt you, but that seems like it is something that would be frequently contested if there wasn't a source. Thanks. — {{U|Technical 13}} ^{(e • t • c)} 12:23, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

Done (talk to) TheOtherGaelan('s contributions) 19:10, 13 June 2015 (UTC)

 Not done
hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia is a common misspelling of hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia "perhaps on purpose, to make the word even longer".
As to whether we should include the latter, I note that TheOtherGaelan has added the correct spelling, but as this is a "Jocular or fictional" phobia I think its inclusion needs some form of consensus. - Arjayay (talk) 19:17, 13 June 2015 (UTC)

In terms of the use-mention distinction, has this word really ever been used, as opposed to made up for fun and then endlessly mentioned, with no foundation of uses to justify all those mentions? The double-p is a fiction in any event, because the underlying word is "sesquipedalian", which has only one "p", and there is neither an etymological nor common-usage-based justification for two of them. —Largo Plazo (talk) 20:24, 13 June 2015 (UTC)

There was much discussion about this years ago; it's a made-up word that misuses the root ("hippo" means horse, not big) and isn't notable enough for mention anyway. I removed it. - DavidWBrooks (talk) 21:55, 13 June 2015 (UTC)

Add Request: Additional Data on Dvorak Keyboard

Under Notable Long Words > Typed Words:

• Since the Dvorak keyboard has the most-used letters on the home row, there are many long words that can be made on the center row alone. The longest word that can be made on the center row of the Dvorak keyboard (AOEUIDHTNS) is instantaneousnesses (19 letters), followed by ostentatiousnesses (18 letters). The longest vulgar word that can be typed on the center row is shittinesses (12 letters).

Longest Word with Letters in Alphabetical Order

"The longest word whose letters are in alphabetical order is the eight-letter Aegilops, a grass genus. However, this is arguably both Latin and a proper noun. There are several six-letter English words with their letters in alphabetical order, including abhors, almost, begins, biopsy, chimps and chintz."

If Aegilops does not count then the longest is 7, not 6: billowy — Preceding unsigned comment added by IEllmen (talk • contribs) 21:39, 14 September 2015 (UTC)

• "Billowy" has a pair of repeated L's, so it presumably doesn't count. It's worth mentioning, though. TheFizzyNator (talk) 12:49, 30 September 2015 (UTC)

Longest word consisting of vowels.

Aiaiai is a name applied in South American to the roseate spoonbill, or in Paraguay to the jabiru. Ref. the entry in The Century Dictionary and Cyclopedia. Like euouae, aiaiai is six letters long. --173.195.255.76 (talk) 03:08, 16 October 2015 (UTC)

But "aiaiai" isn't an English word. You gave "roseate spoonbill" and "jabiru" as the English equivalents. This article is "Longest word in English". —Largo Plazo (talk) 11:05, 16 October 2015 (UTC)

The source referred to (Century Dictionary) does not tag the word aiaiai as foreign or anything other than standard. Presumably it has been used by English speakers in the regions where the birds are found. The dictionary cited does give the word's source as a native name. However, it also gives the source of "jabiru" as a Tupi word. Unabridged dictionaries contain many common names for plants and animals that are taken directly from native languages, yet they are listed untagged as part of the lexicon. (Note that "euouae" derives from the Latin "seculorum amen", yet is accepted as an English word.) I welcome any pointers to written standards for determining which words in use by English speakers are in fact English words and which are foreign, or for determining which untagged entries in English dictionaries are in fact foreign words. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.195.255.76 (talk) 18:48, 16 October 2015 (UTC)

You wrote "is a name applied in South America". Presumably, the people calling it "aiaiai" in South America are doing so in the course of speaking in their native language, whether that be Spanish or Portuguese or Dutch or Sranan Tongo or French or Quechua or Aymara or any number of other languages, but not, unless they're from Guyana, English. —Largo Plazo (talk) 21:30, 16 October 2015 (UTC)

You may be right. English is undoubtedly spoken alongside native tongues in the countries in question, both by some natives and by others, but it only has official standing in Guyana. Of course, borrowings from other languages are common in English, and some eventually become legitimated as English usage, and I see no reason why that could not have occurred in this case. But I don't know the rules for such determinations; about all I can say is, it's in the dictionary cited, not tagged as a foreign word, but from the etymology clearly borrowed from a native word. In that it seems similar to many other words. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.195.255.76 (talk) 23:23, 16 October 2015 (UTC)

Omission of "hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia"?

I am curious as to why hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia is not included in the list. It is a valid clinical term that (ironically) means fear of long words.

7 letter alphabetical word

Billowy. It is in Merriam Webster, Oxford Dictionaries, and Collins. Google Chrome does not give it a red underline.--Simplificationalizer (talk) 15:32, 22 August 2017 (UTC)

Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia

No mention of 'Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia' (the fear of long words). It has 36 letters. Sunomi64 (talk) 21:44, 23 August 2017 (UTC)

Because it's not an actual word that gets used anywhere. - DavidWBrooks (talk) 00:19, 24 August 2017 (UTC)

Define 'actual word'. As far as I know any word with a defined meaning is an 'actual word' in a language that has no governing body. Dictionary.com (one of if not the most used dictionaries in the internet age) recognizes it, as do countless other sites that can be found from a quick search. Oldest reference I found on Google Books was in 'Introduction to Psychology: Exploration and Application' by Dennis Coon, 1980 (link breaks itself in WML for some reason). I've personally known of the word since I was given a lesson about long English words in school (American public school). The word also seems well known, significantly more so than some of the words featured in the article. Sunomi64 (talk) 02:44, 24 August 2017 (UTC)

Your book reference is interesting, although I can't find it doing a search. I only find the word showing up in jokey, non-academic books about long words that will print anything, and which is why I've long regarded this as not a real word and have been against variants of it being included. But I'm probably doing the search wrong!

Assuming you're right, why should we list it here? This isn't an article about any quirky long word we can find - this word is notable only because of its cutesy self-reference. There are lots of long words that have been created in recent decades by pasting together tidbits (the "hippopoto-" prefix is ridiculous) so what's notable enough about this word it should be included in this article's fairly short list? Personally, I don't see anything. - DavidWBrooks (talk) 15:33, 24 August 2017 (UTC)

Spell out the words!

A lot of these entries have ... in the middle. The full word isn't even viewable in the view source page.

longest words in eglish

the list of english longest words given in not usable in daily language. ther must be a list of daily using longest words familiar to every one likely acknowledgement. the chemical names and some medical terminologies i think are not known to every one and like to be impracticable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 116.90.122.10 (talk) 08:44, 19 December 2017 (UTC)

Nice idea, but how do you define "daily language"? Here are the last few entries of a list of 45,000 words (a version of the Unix words file):

19 anthropomorphically 19 incomprehensibility 19 straightforwardness 20 electroencephalogram 20 Mediterraneanization 20 nondeterministically 21 electroencephalograph 21 Mediterraneanizations 22 electroencephalography 28 antidisestablishmentarianism

Which of these count as "daily language"? Here are their approximate relative frequencies in English-language books:

120 electroencephalography (22)

40 electroencephalograph (21)

250 electroencephalogram (20)

150 incomprehensibility = straightforwardness (19)

500 telecommunications (18)

I don't have the patience to check 17-letter words (there are 57 in the words file).

It may be that the EEG words are overrepresented because the voluminous medical literature is swamping other genres... how can we tell?

I'm not sure how we could add this information to the article, though; working off words and ngrams seems like original research.

Perhaps [1] could be used. --Macrakis (talk) 16:01, 19 December 2017 (UTC)

The longest word without a vowel is rhythms

The explanation is the consideration of "y" as a consonant, but in English the letter "y" can be used as a vowel or a consonant. In fact, y is usually a vowel in English.

Edit Request to reflect Collins English Dictionary, longest non-coined word etc

Suggested improvement based on the Collins English Dictionary @ www.collinsdictionary.com

The main table at the start of the article gives the 30-letter word "Pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism" as the longest non-coined word in a major dictionary. This isn't correct as the Collins English Dictionary includes the 31-letter word dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane. Major dictionaries section also could be updated to reflect this. http://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane

Collins blog post here (http://www.collinsdictionary.com/words-and-language/interesting-words/the-longest-word-in-the-collins-english-dictionary,38,HCB.html) also contains various words with certain characteristics of length, which could usefully be incorporated into this article.

One could argue that the first four words in the chart are not "English".

Simply listing them as "technical" doesn't preclude this. There are technical terms which are also, in fact, English -- e.g., "cloud computing", "computer aided design", "authentication", "biometrics", and the like.

pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis

Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis is a string of Latin terms that together describe an inflammatory lung disease caused by long-term inhalation of silica dust. While the word is made up, the disease is real, and it's known under the names pneumoconiosis, silicosis, or black lung in the UK. 210.1.127.194 (talk) 03:49, 27 July 2024 (UTC)

The wikipedia page for pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis states that it is not silicosis or black lung, but a subset of it. The page here is misleading. 172.58.109.40 (talk) 05:29, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
