h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

 Antidisestablishmentarianism is the longest word I know.

Oh. That word was around when I was at school. Tee hee hee. I'm only fourteen, and I only left just before Easter so that I could be home-educated. My favourite word is "phantasmagorical" and I think it suits me rather well (preen). Janie.

'Plinth' is a good word. Short but good. 'Ovuncular' also sounds good but I haven't a clue what it means. It probably doesn't describe me. There is a word with something like 1000 letters but I've lost the book with it in.

There's a place called Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwrndrwbwllllantsyliogogogoch

Hmmm.. That wouldn't happen to be in Wales would it? [sarcasm mode]

I've just remembered another word I like. 'Anal Fanfare'. You can probably work out what it means.

Erm, yeah, I think I can just about imagine it.

my favourite long word...
floccinaucinihilpilificatious - adequately describes much of what we read!

I like words. But I hate Boyzone.

My fiance is a midwife and she has a beautiful word. It a method of doing something to make sure the baby does the things it is supposed to do, when it is supposed to do them, and what it would like for lunch. (OK so I made the last bit up.) But for the life of me I cannot remember what it is. I will ask her tonight and post it tomorrow. It is about 4.5 million letters long.

What do the other three in Boyzone actually do? Ronan sings, the little bloke sings, but the other 3? ???

They stand there, without moving, wearing suits and ties so that nobody thinks that they're a boy band.

I've found it!!! The book with the really long word in it. See http://www.h2g2.com/P99010 for details.

Longer than Antidisestablishmentarianism is Antidisestablishmentarianismically.

It means 'In the manner of something opposing the disestablishment of the Church of England'

And in layman's terms that would be "to be against those who are against putting members of the Church of England in the House of Lords". I think.
