There is a debate going on in the "interwebs" about what is the longest word, some say that it is Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis but others say its the scientific word for Titin but since that word isnt in the dictionary, people says it doesnt count. what do you say, is this technically the longest word for the English Language

Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis.. that's what Abe said
 
Since both seem to be scientific words, I'd say that they're Latin and as such, disqualified from competition. Henceforth, the interim "longest word in the English language" will be "duck", all other words must shorten themselves or be executed.

Yeah, all those chemical compounds-whatever shouldn't count
 
If you say it loud enough you'll always sound percocious.
 
I think there's a new contender.

Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis

Wonder of wonders. That's that word Abe Simpson uses in the episode where he and Homer make Simpson and Son's Revitalizing Tonic. That's a real word?
