-Removed-1. it's a formula, not a word.
2. why is it separated into loads of different groups of letters? Could these be the actual WORDS that describe the ingredients to the formula?
3. my guess is that it's not a proper word - and if it was there would be about 3 people in the world who would use it.
edit.
4. there's too many "y"s in it. 😕
Cut-and paste job from fun-with-words.com:
Two chemical terms (3,641 and 1,913 letters long) have appeared in the Guinness Book of World Records. They were withdrawn because they have never been used by chemists, and there is no theoretical limit to the length of possible legitimate chemical terms. A DNA molecule could have a name of over 1,000,000,000 letters if it was written out in full.
Longest Words (single words)
(45) PNEUMONOULTRAMICROSCOPICSILICOVOLCANOCONIOSIS (also spelled PNEUMONOULTRAMICROSCOPICSILICOVOLCANOKONIOSIS) = a lung disease caused by breathing in particles of siliceous volcanic dust.
This is the longest word in any English dictionary. However, it was coined by Everett Smith, the President of The National Puzzlers' League, in 1935 purely for the purpose of inventing a new "longest word". The Oxford English Dictionary described the word as factitious. Nevertheless it also appears in the Webster's, Random House, and Chambers dictionaries.
(37) HEPATICOCHOLANGIOCHOLECYSTENTEROSTOMIES = a surgical creation of a connection between the gall bladder and a hepatic duct and between the intestine and the gall bladder.
This is the longest word in Gould's Medical Dictionary.
(34) SUPERCALIFRAGILISTICEXPIALIDOCIOUS = song title from the Walt Disney movie Mary Poppins.
It is in the Oxford English Dictionary.
Just a note, out of interest, for the fact that 'floccinoccipaucinihilipilification,' is the longest word ( none chemical or medical )used in English. 'Doubt it's in Websters mind you.
From memory I remember that the spelling may vary, single c 'noci', but it never gained great popularity ( there's a surprise 🙂 but it was used in 17th and 18th century, plus a tad, to indicate the 'act of estimation as being worthless.'
Originally posted by RevRSleekerActually the "nocci" isn't part of the original word at all (or to be precise, the "occip" isn't). And apparently it wasn't invented until the 18th century.
