A simple answer, theres one word in the Enlish language that is the longest. It consists of 1909 letters. xD Im not going to type it because it might take me an hour, but i'll tell you the meaning. It is a term for  the forumula C1289H2051N343O375S8. A Trytophan synthetase A protein, an enzyme that has 267 amino acids.

I hope I type this correctly, because this was what I've studied long long ago that I couldn't read my own handwriting. Big Smile

Supercalafreigalisticexpraladocious = stupid, crazy, mad.

I don't know...My teacher said that it was the longest word in the English Dictionary Smile
