and it is something like "floccinocci nihilipiphilipication". Has anyone else come across this word? If so, have I spelt it correctly and in which dictionary can I find it?
(It should all be one word but when I tried to submit my question Answers wouldn't display the whole word.)

The word you are looking for is as under. I have copied the word and its meaning from Wikipedia.
There are a lot of websites on this word. Just type this word in Yahoo search to access them:
Floccinaucinihilipilification (American English: listen) is "the act or habit of estimating or describing something as worthless, or making something to be worthless by deprecation".
With 29 letters, it is the longest non-technical word in the first edition of the Oxford
