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. It has since been used in a close approximation of its originally intended context, lending at least some degree of validity to its claim.
Now for the pronunciation......

Pneumonoultramicroscopic silico volcano coneosis (45 letters -- had to misspell it to fit in Urban Dictionary -- merge all of the words togeather); a lung disease caused by breathing in certain particles) is the longest word in any English-language dictionary.

I don't know about the other answers but I can't find it and I think it may be more the one word. Pneumono ultramicroscopic silico. Oh well who knows. I'm not a doctor. Sorry. Hope you find what you're looking for.
