…. Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis.
Win!-
Well done babybel. Though it is a pointless word coined to be the longest word. I’ve actually met people with silicosis and i don’t think they’d thank you for this enormous name (they have difficulty completing sentences sometimes because of their trouble breathing.
Still a win’s a win. Congrats and fair play etc….

antidisestablishmentarianism. Didn’t look it up so may have misspelt/misremembered it.
How about you?

Hi elmo97,
I have a question for you – how many questions can a sane person ask?!
Easy answer – antidisestablishmentarianism (unless you include some of those long names of chemicals that chemists make up!)

floccinoccinihilipilipification
And I didn’t look that up so it might be wrong
Before that it was antidisestablishmentarianism, I believe – at least, in English!
