Antidisestablishmentarianism is actually the longest, so I hear.

EDIT: The one you posted is actually several words put together. You missed a few hyphons. What does it mean anyways.

Or perhaps smiles is the longest word — after all, there is a mile between the first letter and the last.

But really, the dictionary site says antidisestablishmentarianism is the longest, even though Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis is longer...

It actually wouldn't be that hard, just look at it, when you break it up it's just a bunch of easier to spell words

In the guiness book of world records it's the longest word. Somehow, that word stuck with many since I came across it a couple years ago(spelling and all). I think it's something you get when you inhale dust from a volcano, lol. Dictionaries are always being updated, so it may not be in any of the older ones, before the word was established. People can make up names for phobias if they like, that's why there's a ton of weird names for them.

A. It depends . . .

It might be supercalifragilisticexpialidocious (which appears in the Oxford English Dictionary), unless you want to count names of diseases (such as 'pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis', defined by the OED as "a factitious word alleged to mean 'a lung disease caused by the inhalation of very fine silica dust' but occurring chiefly as an instance of a very long word"), places (such as 'Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysili ogogogoch', a village in Wales), chemical compounds (apparently there is one that is 1,913 letters long), and also a few words found only in Joyce's Finnegans Wake.
