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？

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。……
