nonono that's all bullshit
i just spent a lot of time thinking about this and believe me, I CARRY THE TRUTH IN MY SLUT (a small amount of truth but whatever)
not that i came to any conclusion or anything, however!
the bestest best word in the whole world definitely contains three syllables, no more, no less, not four, not two unless counting up to three, but three
AND
it must be sexy and dangerous
(these bits of truth are the fruits of a halfhour long electro lyrics brainstorm session, it's all true, and proven, by scientists, and aliens, and vikings)

how come "antidisestablishmentarianism" isn't just "establishmentarianism"?
>>93
It's the difference between being in favour of establishment and being opposed to those who are opposed to those who favour establishment.
enemy->enemy->friend != friend
And "antidisestablishmentarianism" just rolls off the tongue so nicely.

antidisestablishmentarianism isn't the same thing as establishmentarianism, because antidisestablishmentarianism is opposed to DIS-establishing, but establismentarians would support establisment.

101 pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis (45 letters... but it may not be the longest word out there)... but I'll settle for my word spiffy
"At 45 letters, it is certainly the longest word ever to appear in a non-technical dictionary of English, the Oxford English Dictionary. However there are strong indications that the word was coined by puzzler Everett Smith in 1935 as a hypothetical long word that could result from the protraction of medical terms. The actual name of the disease is pneumoconiosis, which is 14 letters long."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longest_word_in_English#Popular_usage
Floccinaucinihilipilification is the longest "official" word in the English language, even longer than Antidisestablishmentarianism, but is longer really better and is English really best?
What language would YOU recommend? If it's esperanto, or some other made up bullshit that nobody in their right mind would speak, I shoot you.
WRYYYYYYYY
>If it's esperanto, or some other made up bullshit that nobody in their right mind would speak, I shoot you.
There are people whose mother tongue is esperanto, you know. ; )
sucks to be them.
>>There are people whose mother tongue is esperanto, you know. ; )
>sucks to be them.
I'll ignore your (non-)seriousness level and counter-argue for a bit. I think it would work quite well and be quite nice, actually. Esperanto isn't anything like a "crazy moon language" or anything. Rather, it appears to be a hybrid of latin/germanic/slavic languages, making anyone who speaks it a much better learner of many European languages than a random person.
Also, someone who has parents willing to teach them Esperanto as first language will very probably be in an environment that's very good for learning languages anyway.
There are probably thousands of "natural languages" with very few remaining speakers which it "sucks" way more to be born into - Wikipedia gives estimates of first/seconds language speakers as 1000/100 000, and those people will certainly stay in touch quite well.
propaganda is a pretty good word, too.

Aramaic, for one. Has less than 3k speakers.

>>105
O RLY? Those must be big losers, as with klingon.
> it appears to be a hybrid of latin/germanic/slavic languages
Yeah, right. I can read Spanish (mother tongue) and Portuguese; I can understand a good deal of Italian and French; I'd know the roots of many Romanian words; and as you can see, I've learnt English too. I took a look at dEsperanto, and I couldn't get 1% of that. It's just bullshit. Making a language that resembles both English and Spanish, 2nd and 3rd most used languages, is hard enough, nevermind how stupid the idea of inventing new languages is, but trying to make a language that's a mix of English, Spanish, German, and whatever my father sings when taking a shower results in bizarre, gibberish babbling. What do you get from mixing red, green and blue? Gray, and it's nothing like red, nothing like green, and nothing like blue, thus foreign to 50% more colors than it would be if you just took one of red, green, or blue.
Languages were invented and standarized to understand each other. Making languages others don't know defeats their purpose. Get over it.
