There are seemingly endless debates over which is the longest word in English, demonstrating that the idea of what constitutes a word is not as straightforward as it seems

The longest word in the English language containing only one vowel is strengths, while scraunched is the longest monosyllabic word in current usage. Twyndyllyngs is the longest word without any of the common vowel letter

The longest words with no repeated letters are dermatoglyphics, misconjugatedly and uncopyrightable

The longest word in any major English language dictionary is Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis, a 45-letter word supposed to refer to a lung disease, but research has discovered that this word was originally intended as a hoax

The Guinness Book of Records, in its 1992 and subsequent editions, declared the "longest real word" in the English language to be floccinaucinihilipilification at 29 letters. Defined as "the act of estimating (something) as worthless", its usage has been recorded as far back as 1741

The longest word which appears in William Shakespeare's works is the 27-letter honorificabilitudinitatibus, appearing in Love's Labour's Lost.

I believe Nick in case you recommend the most written symbols. in spite of the undeniable fact that, "alphabet" implies a phonetic language (from the first 2 letters of the Greek alphabet, alpha and beta) even as the elements of chinese characters symbolize which skill really than sound. On relaxing trivia i found a similar question with some surprising solutions; the most suitable one gave the prize to Khmer with sixty 8 characters, bringing up the Guinness e book of global archives.
