The Oldest Longest Word is:
(45) PNEUMONOÂULTRAÂMICROÂSCOPICÂSILICOÂVOLCANOÂCONIOSIS (also spelled PNEUMONOÂULTRAÂMICROÂSCOPICÂSILICOÂVOLCANOÂKONIOSIS) = a lung disease caused by breathing in particles of siliceous volcanic dust.
This is the longest word in any English dictionary. However, it was coined by Everett Smith, the President of The National Puzzlers' League, in 1935 purely for the purpose of inventing a new "longest word". The Oxford English Dictionary described the word as factitious. Nevertheless it also appears in the Webster's, Random House, and Chambers dictionaries.
