I do not think it's a real word, would be split into at least 7 or 8 words.

In his play Assemblywomen, the ancient Greek comedic poet Aristophanes created a word of 183 letters describing a dish by stringing together its ingredients.
that's the longest word in the world according to Guiness...
correct me if I am wrong or I need an update...
I can't type it because it's in Greek and you will not be able to read

"Trychotillomania" is not so very long, but a nice word.
"Triskaidekaphobia" is another nice one.
"Honorificabilitudinitatibus" is the longest word in English literature. It appears in Shakespeare's "Love's Labours Lost".

[QUOTE=BaldFriede] "Trychotillomania" is not so very long, but a nice word.
¿Is this the word that means "fixation or compulsion to pull out one's hair and eat it"?

Pull it out, yes, but not eat it.

The longest word has no letters... it's like some sort of infinity thing...

I've heard of schutzengrappenvernichtungpanzerkraftwagen being the full German for tank, often shortened to panzer.

how about:

I believe that's Welsh

let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword
