Ok. today i showed my dad that i was reading 20,000 leauges under the sea,
and i told him i had found three new words for my collection (now with 217 words!)
so we started looking up pictures of wierd fish. (wait for it!)
but then my mom asked what a league was, and we looked it up. pretty soon, we were looking up interesting words and stuff on the internet. heres some pretty impressive ones.
Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia which, ironically, is the fear of long words.
Floccinaucinihilipilification
Antidisestablishmentarianism
and, psuedofollicular.
but the longest word in the world, containing over 1,800 letters, is;
Methionylglutaminylarginyltyrosylglutamylserylleucylphen- ylalanylalanylglutaminylleucyllysylglutamylarginyllysylgluta- mylglysylalanylphenylalanylvalylprolylphenylalanylyalylthre- onylleucylglcycylaspartylprolylglicylisoleucyglutamylgluta- minlserylleucyllysylisoleucylaspartylthreonylleucylisoleu- cylglutamylalanylglyclyalanylaspartylalanylleucyglutamylle- ucylgluycylisoleucylproluylphenylalanyserylaspartyprolylleu- celalanylaspartylglycylprolylthreonylisolleucyglutaminylaspa- raginylalanythreonylleucylarginylalanylphenylalanylalanylal- anylglycylvalylthreonylprolylalanylglutaminylcysteinylphen- ylalanylglglutamylmethionylleucyalanylleucylisoleucylarginyl- glutaminyllysylhistidylprolyuthreonylisoleucylprolylisoleuc- ylglycylleucylleucylmethionyltyrosylalanylasbaraginylleucyl- valylphenylalanylsparaginyyllysylglycylisoleucylaspartylglut- amylphenylalanylyltyrosylalanylglutaminylcysteinylglutamyll- ysylvalylglycylvalylspartylserylvalylleucylvallalanylaspart- ylvalylprolylvalvlglutaminylglutamylserylalanylprolylpheny- lalalrginylglutaminylalanylalanylleucylarginylhistidylasp- araginylvalylalalprolylisoleucylphenylalanylisoleucylcystei- nylprolyprolylaspartylalanylaspartylaspartyspartyleucylle- ucylarginylglutaminylisoleucylalanylseryltyroslglycylargin- ylglycyltyrosylthreonyltyrosylleucylleucylserylarginlalanyl- glycylvalylthreonylglycylalanylglutamylasparaginylarginyla- nylalanylleucylprolylleucylaspaaginylhistidylleucylvalylalan- yllysylleucyllysylglutamyltyrosylasparagimylalanylalanypro- lylprolylleucylglutaminylglycylphenlalanylglycylisoleyucyls- erylalanylprolylaspartylglutaminylvalyllysylalanylalanylisol- eucylalspartylalanylglycylalanylalanylglycylalanylasoleucylse- rylglycylserylalanylisoleucylbalyllysylisoleucylisoleucylgluta- mylglutaminylhistidylasparaginylisoleucylglutamylpronylglu-0 tamyllysylmethionylluecylalanylalanyoeucyllysylvalylpheny- lalanylvalylglutamilylprolylmethionyllysylalanylalanylthreo- nylarginylserine.

Supercalifragilisticexpealidocious means "one who eats peanut butter with a spoon". Unless you're in France in which case it means "without cheese, please".
