flocci­nauci­nihili ­pili­fication

(but without the space -- had to do it that way or Answers would not display the whole thing)

This is considered "the longest non-technical word in major dictionaries. . . Consisting of a series of Latin words meaning 'nothing' and defined as 'the act of estimating something as worthless'"

Where is the accent. I can't figure out what word you're attempting here. Try again with a better pronunciation guide and I'll be happy to give it another go.

I know your not making this up. I THINK (note: this is a guess!) that it's spelled flauseenawseeniehillipillification.

Once again: that is a guess!
Good Luck all you spellers!
