最长的单词

世界上最恐怖的英语单词(转) 有人提到了单词pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis（矽肺病），够恐 怖的，不过这不是最长的单词，至少还有一个地名比它更长：Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgoge rychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch（威尔士的一个小村子），整整多了13个字母。当 然，即使是这个 词也不能算是最长的，当之无愧的世界第一长单词是什么呢？ --smiles 看看第一个字母和最后一个字母之间的距离吧。然而，一个微笑缩短了这个距离。 其实，象pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis和Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgog erychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch这样的单词是比较无趣的，几乎没有什么实用价值 ，唯一的优点是他们够冗长。如果你在浏览器地址栏里输入以下字符串：www.pneumonoul tramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis.com或者www.Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyr ndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.com知道会是什么结果吗？God!原来这两个古怪的域名已经 有人注册了，果然是世界真奇妙。 除开这两个超级冗词，以下单词也是冗词的典范，虽然在数量级上比他们小了好多： supercalifragilisticexpialidocious antidisestablishmentarianism floccinaucinihilipilification honorificabilitudinitatibus 而在此以前，我一直井底之蛙的以为misunderstanding已经够瞧的了，汗。…… 据疯狂英语2001，九月，第30期载：   最长的是1，913个字母，   是“色氨酸合成酶A蛋白质”   （一种含有267种氨基酸酶）的全称----   一般的字典上是见不着的。   （你可以翻翻医学专用词汇字典^_*）   单词如下：   Methionylglutaminylarginyltyrosylglutamylserylleucylphenylalanylalany   lglutaminylleucyllysylglutamylarginyllysylglutamylglycylalanylphenyla   lanylvalylprolyphenylalanYlvalythreonylleucylglycylaspartylprolylglyc   ylisoleucylglutamylglutaminylsErylleucyllysylisoleucylaspartylthreony   lleucylIsoleucylglutamylalanylglycylalanylasparthlalanylleucylglutamy   lleucylglycylisoleucylprolylphenylalanylseRylaspartylprolylleucylalan   ylaspartylglycylpRolylthreOnylisoleucylglutaminylasPfraginylalanylthr   eonylleucylarfinylalanylphenylalanylalanylalanylglycylvalythreonylpro   lylalanylglutaminylcysteinylphenylalanylglutamylmethionylleucylalanyl   leuOylisoleucylarginylglutaminyllysyhistidylprolylthreonylisoleucylpr   olylisoleucylglycylleucylmethionyltyrosylalanylasparaginylleucylvalyl   phenylalanylasparaginyllysyglycylisoleucylaspartylglutamylphenylalany   lthrosylalanylglutaminylcysteinylglutamyllysylvalylglycylvalylasparty   lserylvalylleucylvalylalnylaspartylvalylprolylvalylglUtaminylglutamyl   serylalanylprolylphenylalanylarginylglutaminylalanylalanylleucylarginy   lhistidylasparaginyvalylalanylprolylisoleucylprolylisoleucylphenylalan   ylisoleucylphenylalanylisoleucylcysteinylprolylprolylaspartylalanylasp   artylaspartylaspartylleucylleucylarginylglutaminylisoleucylalanylseryl   tyrosylglycylarginylglycyltyrosylthreonyltyrOsylleucylleucylserylargin   ylalanylglycylvalylthreonylglycylalanylglutamYlasparainylarginylalanyl   alanylleucylprolylleucylasparaginylhistidylleucylValylalanyllysylleucy   llysylglutamyltyrosylasparaginylalanylalanylprolylprolylleucylglutaminy glgycylphenylalanylglycylisoleucylserylalanylprolylaspartylglutaminylvalyllysylalanylalanylisoleucylaspartylalanylglycylalanylalanylglycylalanylisoleucylserylglycylserylalanylisoleucylvalyllysylisoIeucylisoleucyllutamylglutaminylHistidylasparaginyliSoleucylglutamylprolylglutamyllysylmethionylleucylalanylalanylleucyllysylvalylphenylalanylcalylglutaminylprolylmethionlysylalanylalanylthreonylarginylserine
