Longest word

[LiveLoveLaugh]

What is the longest word you have ever deciphered?

[bansaisequoia]

The longest word I can think of right now is "possibiltarian."

"Become a possibilitarian. No matter how dark things seem to be or actually are, raise your sights and see the possibilities--always see them, for they're always there."--Norman Vincent Peale

But Anatolia is so impressive, she once solved a quote with "brobdingnagian megalosauruses."

Frisbeetarianism is the belief that when you die, your soul goes up on the roof and gets stuck. George Carlin

I decided to google what the current longest word is in the common English language:

Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis (45 letters)
(a disease of the lungs cause by inhaling silica dust)

Would not want to see that in a crypto.

[bansaisequoia]

If we include proper nouns, which are obviously used in very many cryptos, words can get even longer. For example, this town in North Wales:

Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwyll-llantysiliogogogoch

The English translation of this is "The church of St. Mary in the hollow of white hazel trees near the rapid whirlpool by St. Tysilio's of the red cave."

And then there's this New Zealand town:

Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateapokaiwhenuakit anatahu

Translated from the Maori, it is "the place where Tamatea, the man with the big knees, who slid, climbed and swallowed mountains, known as 'landeater,' played his flute to his loved one."

And here's the full Thai name for Bangkok:

กรุงเทพมหานคร อมรรัตนโกสินทร์ มหินทรายุธยามหาดิลก ภพนพรัตน์ ราชธานีบุรีรมย์ อุดมราชนิเวศน์ มหาสถาน อมรพิมาน อวตารสถิต สักกะทัตติยะ วิษณุกรรมประสิทธิ์

Krungthepmahanakonbowornratanakosinmahintarayudyay amahadiloponoparatanarajthaniburiromudomrajniwesma hasatarnamornpimarnavatarsatitsakattiyavisanukamph rasit

Or, in English:

"The land of angels, the great city of immortality, various of divine gems, the great angelic land unconquerable, land of nine noble gems, the royal city, the pleasant capital, place of the grand royal palace, forever land of angels and reincarnated spirits, predestined and created by the highest devas."
