The eleven-letter word broughammed (created by analogy with bussed, biked, carted etc.), while readily pronounceable as one syllable in all dialects ("broomed"), is yet to appear in a print dictionary.

The longest English word of one syllable is the ten-letter scraunched, appearing in a 1620 translation of Cervantes' Don Quixote. It is a largely obsolete form of scrunched or crunched.

There are a number of nine-letter words of a single syllable.

Here are some I made up:

In an argument or a discussion the person who has the last word is Zyzzy. The last word in the dictionary, if it were to be in the dictionary would be zyzzy.

When scientist discovered there was another digit between the nine and the ten, they came to me for a name.

I told them it was the Squiggen. seven, eight, nine, squiggen, ten.

ninety-eight, ninety-nine, squiggity. squiggity-one, squiggity-two, squiggity-three, squiggity-four,squiggity-five, squiggity-six, squiggity-seven, squiggity-eight, squiggity-nine, squiggity-squiggen, a hundred.

Jabberwocky, by Lewis Carroll (who also wrote "Alice in Wonderland") has tons of cool and made-up words. English has even put some of the nonsense words he created into normal spoken English, like "chortled."

Chortled is a combination of "chuckled" and "snorted" that is used to describe a specific snorting, chuckling giggle.

The text of the poem follows below. Enjoy!

Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

'Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!'

He took his vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the manxome foe he sought--
So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
And stood awhile in thought.

And as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!

One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.

'And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!'
He chortled in his joy.

'Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.
