is the longest word in the English language. 1,909 letters long. It is a protein.

meaning the act of estimating as worthless. 29 letters, used back in 1741.
(BTW, watch TV every day and one day you will see the GEICO commercial that uses this world in a spelling bee, most of u have already seen it, but still very funny commercial 
)
pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis (or pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanokoniosis),
is a lung disease. 45 letters.
Humuhumunukunukuapua'a,
AKA reef triggerfish, is Hawaii's official state fish. At 21 letters, it is supposedly longer than the fish itself.
