Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious (super - cali - fragil - istic - expialid - ocious - ) is a song and a long word from the movie Mary Poppins (and in the musical version)
The song describes using the word as a miraculous way to talk oneself out of difficult situations, and even as a way to change one's mood. The song appears in the film's animated sequence where Mary Poppins is harangued by reporters after winning a horse race and responds to one claiming there are not words to describe her feelings of the moment. Mary disagrees with that and begins the song about one word she can use.hoe Ever since the word is used as an adjective referring to "absolutely stunningly fantastic".

It's indeed from Mary Poppins. I'm not sure there is a translation for that word

You didn't spell that correctly it's:
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious....and according to the dictionary(I use wordweb which you can download for free) that word does not exist. Mary Poppins was a magical nanny, but it looks like she wasn't too good on looking in a dictionary.

It's from the movie Mary Poppins and I read that it means:
Practically perfect in every way.
