popsjumper 2 #28 May 11, 2010 Quote Quote Quote I thought the longest word was Marriage That's just the longest sentence... Close... "I DO" is the longest sentence. "I do" is the plea. Marriage is the sentence. Divorce is the stay of execution.My reality and yours are quite different. I think we're all Bozos on this bus.

FlyingJ 0 #29 May 14, 2010 Quote Quote Quote Pneumonoultramiscroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis What a tongue twister this is... And the dead funny thing is that anyone that has it probably couldn't say it in one go - cuz they haven't go the breath I asked the MD I work for to say this out loud and she said it the same as I did. No one can say this without slaughtering it... I know that there are at least 15 years worth of 5th grade classes that can not only say but spell this word. We had an awesome 5th grade teacher where I grew up that went above and beyond int he vocabulary area, coming up with her own program, etc. Each month had some obscenely long word like this one that everyone had to learn in addition to the regular list that was years ahead of the 5th grade level. I was more prepared immediately following 5th grade for high school english/grammar/vocab than I was after an additional 3 years of mindless instruction in middle school.Killing threads since 2004.

Squeak 17 #30 May 14, 2010 QuoteQuote Pneumonoultramiscroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis I tried to say it, but I ran out of breath. Damn dust. But really, isn't this a Latin word, more than an English one? Nope it's english but it's several words conjoined.
