We won’t spell it out here, but the full name for the protein nicknamed titin would take three and a half hours to say out loud. While this is, by far, the longest word in English, the longest word in the Oxford English Dictionary has 45 letters, and the longest made-up word has just 28. :oops:
 
I tried to speak the word when I was a kid and I spoke it fluent, but now I don't remember the word. That's an incredible word by the way.
 
Hi all! I think that’s a fascinating fact! It’s incredible that such a long word exists, though I can’t even imagine how to pronounce it 😲.
