The french translation is Anticonstitutionnellement and it's the longest word in french.

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...Wink
 
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.

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

how about:
 
thisstupidthreadhasrunitscourseanditisabouttimetoendit
 
 
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
