I give you the longest word in the English language! Slightly altered to make it a verb...
Actually there are much longer words than that one in the English language.
I'm almost afraid to ask what's longer. So what's longer?? /doorwideopen
Yeah, Caylin, name a longer one andI will crown you King of the English, Americans, Canadians, New Zealanders, Australians, Irish, Scottish, Welsh, and all other English-speaking folk. A title many a great man has sought but never achieved (until me).
Here is as good start. I like to avoid using chemical or disease names in the search though.

Found in Ripley's "The Omnibus Believe It Or Not", published in 1931, this word was used by medieval scribes to refer to "a deluded human who practices divination or forecasting by means of phenomena, interpretation of acts or other manifestations related to the following animate or inanimate objects and appearances: birds, oracles, Bible, ghosts, crystal gazing, shadows, air appearances, birth stars, meteors, winds, sacrificial appearances, entrails of humans and fishes, fire, red-hot irons, altar smoke, mice, barley, salt, lead, dice, arrows, hatchet balance, sieve, ring suspension, random dots, precious stones, pebbles, pebble heaps, mirrors, ash writing, dreams, palmistry, nail rays, finger rings, numbers, book passages, name letterings, laughing manners, ventriloquism, circle walking, wax, susceptibility to hidden springs, wine and shoulder blades." No wonder it was shortened to only 311 letters!

OK, OK, you got me. My feeble attempt at linguistic domination pales in the face of your mastery of the language we all love so dearly. I guess I'll turn to Spanish to maintain some respectability. Behold the longest (real) word of the Spanish language!

I jiggle my Tool CD along when gary busey stops brushing nick nolte's pancreas and sips seductively on Carrie Fisher's liver and onions while watching Lando suffocate on Hoth's temporary atmosphere.
What would happen when Han's spleen left the ewok's savage rave and vomited smuggler revamp proposals while filthy developers wisely drank bio-engineered Sarlaac puss from Jabba's STD's? Who dropped Lando's sisters weave in washer full of Jam and butter? Meanwhile Mara elongated C-3po's Hydrospanner because the poor ewok ate nine frolicking durnis girlscout cookies.
