it depends...the longest technical word not in a dictionary so far has 189,819 letters.
Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis has 45 letters and is coined as the longest word...((darn, the whole word won't even show..))
Antidisestablishmentarianistically (from antidisestablishmentarianism) has 34 letters.
as you can see, it really depends on where you're looking.

I think it is in between "Supercalfresgilisticexpealidotious" (or how ever you spell it and) antidisasteblismenttarnism once again not entirely sure how to spell. But I do know that the longest word you can spell without repeating a letter is: Uncopyrightable and that the longest word with just one vowel is: "Strength" and that longest commonly-used word with no letter appearing more than once: Ambidextrously. I also know that the longest common word without an a, e i, o OR u is "Rhythms" and lastly the longest English word with letters appearing in alphabetical order is: "Aegilops" (which is and ulcer in the eye)

The longest word is "apologize" it must be the longest word because so few people, including me, find it so difficult to say "I apologize."
