This is kinda neat.

For most of us talking comes pretty easy. If we think of something,
we say it. Concepts considered in our mind become words spoken by our
mouth. However, not every word is easy to say. Some are difficult to
say because hey, they’re difficult to say.
Take for instance pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanokoniosis (a
lung disease caused by breathing in certain particles). Not only is it
considered, at 45 letters, the longest word in any English-language
dictionary, it’s nearly impossible to pronounce.

Oxford.com has some genuine (if rather obviously deliberate) examples
in their files of antidisestablishmentarianism (28 letters) and
floccinaucinihilipilification (29 letters), which are listed in some of
their larger dictionaries. Other words (mainly technical ones) recorded
in the complete Oxford English Dictionary include:

otorhinolaryngological (22 letters),
immunoelectrophoretically (25 letters),
psychophysicotherapeutics (25 letters),
thyroparathyroidectomized (25 letters),
pneumoencephalographically (26 letters),
radioimmunoelectrophoresis (26 letters),
psychoneuroendocrinological (27 letters)
hepaticocholangiogastrostomy (28 letters),
spectrophotofluorometrically (28 letters),
pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism (30 letters).

Most of the words which are given as 'the longest word' are merely
inventions, and when they occur it is almost always as examples of long
words, rather than as genuine examples of use. For example, the medieval
Latin word honorificabilitudinitas (honourableness) was listed by some
old dictionaries in the English form honorificabilitudinity (22
letters), but it has never really been in use. The longest word
currently listed in Oxford dictionaries is the supposed lung-disease
pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis (45 letters).

Research has discovered that
pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis was originally intended as
a hoax. It has since been used in a close approximation of its
originally intended meaning, lending at least some degree of validity to
its claim.

The Oxford English Dictionary contains pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism
(30 letters).

Some editions of the Guinness Book of Records mention
praetertranssubstantiationalistically (37 letters), used in Mark
McShane's Untimely Ripped (1963), and
aequeosalinocalcalinoceraceoaluminosocupreovitriolic (52 letters),
attributed to Dr Edward Strother (1675-1737).

Oldies, but goodies.....


If 4 out of 5 people SUFFER from diarrhea...Does that mean the fifth one
enjoys it?

Isn't it a bit unnerving that doctors call what they do 'practice'?

Would a fly without wings be called a walk?

Why are hemorrhoids called "hemorrhoids" instead of "asteroids"?

Why is it that when you transport something by car, it's called a
shipment, but when you transport something by ship, it's called cargo?

Why is it that you drive on the parkway, and park on the driveway?

Why is the time of day with the slowest traffic called "rush hour"?

Why are a "wise man" and a "wise guy" opposites?

Why is a boxing ring square?

Why do people say "The alarm just went off" when really it just came on?

EVERYTHING YOU ALWAYS WANTED TO KNOW ABOUT AUSTRALIA

The questions below about Australia are from potential visitors. They
were posted on an Australian Tourism Website, and the answers are the
actual responses by the website officials, who obviously have a sense of
humor.

Q: Does it ever get windy in Australia? I have never seen it rain on TV,
how do the plants grow? (UK).
A: We import all plants fully grown and then just sit around watching
them die.

Q: Will I be able to see kangaroos in the street? (USA)
A: Depends how much you've been drinking.

Q: I want to walk from Perth to Sydney – can I follow the railroad
tracks? (Sweden)
A: Sure, it's only three thousand miles, take lots of water.

Q: Is it safe to run around in the bushes in Australia? (Sweden)
A: So it's true what they say about Swedes.

Q: Can you give me some information about hippo racing in Australia?
(USA)
A: Africa is the big triangle shaped continent south of Europe.
Australia is that big island in the middle of the Pacific which does not
... oh forget it. Sure, the hippo racing is every Tuesday night in Kings
Cross. Come naked.

Q: Which direction is North in Australia? (USA)
A: Face south and then turn 180 degrees. Contact us when you get here
and we'll send the rest of the directions.

Q: Can I bring cutlery into Australia? (UK)
A: Why? Just use your fingers like we do.

Q: Can you send me the Vienna Boys' Choir schedule? (USA)
A: Austria is that quaint little country bordering Germany, which is ...
oh, forget it. Sure, the Vienna Boys Choir plays every Tuesday night in
Kings Cross, straight after the hippo races. Come naked.

Q: Can I wear high heels in Australia? (UK)
A: You are a British politician, right?

Q: Are there supermarkets in Sydney and is milk available all year
round? (Germany)
A: No, we are a peaceful civilization of vegan hunter/gatherers. Milk is
illegal.

Q: Please send a list of all doctors in Australia who can dispense
rattlesnake serum. (USA)
A: Rattlesnakes live in America, which is where YOU come from. All
Australian snakes are perfectly harmless, can be safely handled and make
good pets.

Q: I have a question about a famous animal in Australia, but I forget
its name. It's a kind of bear and lives in trees. (USA)
A: It's called a Drop Bear. They are so called because they drop out of
Gum trees and eat the brains of anyone walking underneath them. You can
scare them off by spraying yourself with human urine before you go out
walking.

Q: Do you have perfume in Australia? (France)
A: No, WE don't stink.

Q: I have developed a new product that is the fountain of youth. Can you
tell me where I can sell it in Australia? (USA)
A: Anywhere significant numbers of Americans gather.

Q: Can you tell me the regions in Tasmania where the female population
is smaller than the male population? (Italy)
A: Yes, gay nightclubs.

Q: Do you celebrate Christmas in Australia? (France)
A: Only at Christmas.

Q: I was in Australia in 1969 on R+R, and I want to contact the girl I
dated while I was staying in Kings Cross. Can you help? (USA)
A: Yes, and you will still have to pay her by the hour.

Q: Will I be able to speak English most places I go? (USA)
A: Yes, but you'll have to learn it first.
