A very very long word from Sam
Dear Word Spy,
Do you know this word?
It is...wait for it ...
pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis!
Isn't that a long word? That word has 19 syllables, 46 letters which consist of 26 consonants and 20 vowels. Meaning is here:http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis

Dear Sam,
Wow - imagine if you had to carve that word on a gravestone with a chisel - your hand would fall off!
Thanks for sending me that - I wonder if any other spies out there know some long words?
Yours (in brief)
The Word Spy
