The longest word is:
PNEUMONOULTRAMICROSCOPICSILICOVOLCANOCONIOSIS
and is a lung disease.
If, on the other hand, place names can be deemed legal, the Mauri in New Zealand have a hill they call:
TAUMATAWHAKATANGI
HANGAKOAUAUOTAM
ATEATURIPUKAKAIKI
MAUNGAHORONUK
UPOKAIWHE
The name has 85 letters and seemingly the Mauri generally shorten it to: Taumata
I had to cut the word to get it to fit
However, there is a legal chemical term:
ACETYLSERYLT and another 1174 letters to boot
way too long to start slicing and dicing just to crack a joke
It appeared in the American Chemical Society's Chemical Abstracts and is thus considered by some to be the longest real word.

Tetaumatawhakatangihangakoauaotamateaurehaeaturipukapihimaungahoronukupokaiwhenuaakitanarahu is officially entered in the Guinness Book of Records."stretches the name has 92 letters.
It says the name means "The place where Tamatea, the man with the big knees, who slid, climbed, and swallowed mountains, known as land eater, played his flute to his loved one."
Isn't that sweet.

Also it's Maori. Always. Even when plural and possessive.
