The Next Question

"What is antidisestablishmentarianism?"
"And is that really the longest word?"
"And MOM, can you spell it?"
"Yes, a-n-t-i-d-i-s-e-s-t-a-b-l-i-s-h-m-e-n-t-a-r-i-a-n-i-s-m, yup, that's it."
"No, you spelled it wrong, it's i-t."
"Where? There's not "i-t" in antidisestablishmentarianism.... oh..OH.. i-t, got it, good one, well aren't you smart?





And, because I know my kids read my blog, I present to you from Wikipedia:

Main article: Longest word in English
The longest scientific term in English is the full chemical name of the world's largest known protein, titin. Beginning with Methionyl... and ending with ...isoleucine, the word contains 189,819 letters.
The 45 letter word Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis is the longest English word that appears in a major dictionary. Originally coined to become a candidate for the longest word in English, the term eventually developed some independent use in medicine. It is referred to as "P45" by researchers.
Antidisestablishmentarianism, at 28 letters, is the longest non-coined, non-technical English word. It refers to a 19th century political movement that opposed the disestablishment of the Church of England as the state church of England.


Postscript: I still cannot believe I fell for that old joke. *sigh*
