What the the longest word in your language?

What does it mean?
>>
There's a name of some chemical that's 189,000+ letters long.

The longest 'real' word I know personally is hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia which means 'the fear of long words'

Yeah, but that chemical takes hours to read, lets just keep on "normal" words

Grammatically you can make compound words as long as you want in German, but the longest ones in our dictionary are:

1. Kraftfahrzeughaftpflichtversicherung - Powered vehicle liability insurance
2. Donaudampfschifffahrtsgesellschaft - Danube steam shipping company
3. Rhein-Main-Donau-Großschifffahrtsweg - Rhine Main Danube large shipping network
4. Arbeiterunfallversicherungsgesetz - Worker injury insurance law
5. Bundesausbildungsförderungsgesetz - Federal education student support law
6. Straßenverkehrszulassungsordnung - Road traffic licensing guideline (this is where all our traffic laws and vehicle requirements for inspections go)
7. Behindertengleichstellungsgesetz - Disabled people equality law
8. Steuervergünstigungsabbaugesetz - Tax advantage reduction law
9. Nahrungsmittelunverträglichkeit - Nutritional intolerance (food allergy)
10. Lebensversicherungsgesellschaft - Life insurance company

Same thing goes for us. We don't do it as often as Germans, but in our language you can just put words together to make new words.

This triggers me. This word is NOT a real term. It is literally a joke from a comic strip that idiots like you purport as real. Why the fuck would a scientist randomly put the word hippopotamus (or most of it) in front of a science term?
>>
>>51653294

Hipopotamo - Hippopotamus

Monstros - Monsters

Esqui - Skii

Pedal - pedal

Phobia - phobia

This "word" is literally portuguese.

FYI this word is just plain gibberish. it is possible to make words like that in Finnish but not a single Finn has to ever use shit like that ever.
>>
>>51651715
>What the the longest word in your language?
There is technically no limit on how long compound word can be, but the longest compound word in use is "atomiydinenergiareaktorigeneraattorilauhduttajaturbiiniratasvaihde" which is some part of the nuclear plant.

Then the currently longest non-compound word in Finnish is "kumarreksituteskenteleentuvaisehkollaismaisekkuudellisenneskenteluttelemattomammuuksissansakaankopahan". Something gets probably bowed at, but fuck if I know.
