Antidisestablishmentarianism
Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoco niosis
Floccinaucinihilipilification
Pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism
Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateapok aiwhenuakitanatahu

Last one IS a real word (all are, in case you were wondering).

Its a name not a word. The longest word in the English language is your first one.

Although if you are going with names then look no further than Wales:

Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwll llantysiliogogogoch

Its a town and i win by 1 letter Smiley

Actually, the longest 'word' is the name of a type of chemical, and I can not recall what it is, except that it's related to muscle tissue.

Also, your 2nd one was the largest word in the English language.

You've never heard of the verb 'accept'...? rofl.
The v stands for verb and is not a part of the actual word...  Wink
