PNEUMONO­ULTRA­MICRO­SCOPIC­SILICO­VOLCANO­CONIOSIS (also spelled PNEUMONO­ULTRA­MICRO­SCOPIC­SILICO­VOLCANO­KONIOSIS) = a lung disease caused by breathing in particles of siliceous volcanic dust.
This is the longest word in any English dictionary. However, it was coined by Everett Smith, the President of The National Puzzlers' League, in 1935 purely for the purpose of inventing a new "longest word". The Oxford English Dictionary described the word as factitious. Nevertheless it also appears in the Webster's, Random House, and Chambers dictionaries.

The longest word in the English language has 1,909 letters in it and refers to DNA. Obviously I can't type it out here!

The longets eniglish word is Antidisestablishmentarianism
I think it's got something to do with someone opposed to the closure of the Church of England or something like that.

It's hard to define the term "word" when talkign about all languages. I beleive it's some chemical term, for English at least. One of those okyhypomenstopoxylopolitical type of names. lol
