  • Which language has the longest single natural word ever penned? Not English. ("What about Titin?" "Welsh??" * )

    Some languages have really, REALLY long words. But they're not just full of random letters. There's a pattern to the grammar of letter-filled words that won't quit. It's called "compounding". It's a word-building strategy used in Greek, German and even Polynesian languages like Hawai'ian.
    It was my jarring run-in with really long words in that third language that brings me to this story. Come with me, and learn a bit about how Hawaiian words are built. And why when you flip open a Hawaiian dictionary, the words all seem so short, but when you see it in practice, you'll sometimes run into a real monster or two.
    So, does that mean Hawaiian has the longest words ever?
    Not tellin'. You'll have to watch.
    * The chemical name for Titin? Welsh? [Insert-long-word-here]?
    I went with the decision by Guinness World Records. They ruled out artificial words like chemical nomenclature and words created to test long word limits. Place names are often considered separately, but I mention them here. The Welsh name mentioned in multiple comments isn't as long as the Maori hill on the books for longest single-word place name. The longest place name (not constructed as a single word) may be the poetic/sung Thai name for Bangkok.
    Though it wasn't the point of the video (the compounding strategy was), it's a conversation starter: what are the criteria for longest word? Many comments just disagree; essentially, "what about [my_word]?!?" I'd be interested to see even more good discussion on the decision-making process.
    * AVERAGE WORD LENGTH (asterisked in the video)
    Preliminary data from my homemade script that parsed limited samples in several languages. My sample text came from Wikipedia articles in each language. See the credits link at the bottom for more about it.

      English numbers do the same thing, but only end up hyphenated between 21 and 99 or 100 excluding multiples of 10. This could pretty easily just be extended to include all numbers and then you'd have things like five-hundred-and-twelve-billion-four-hundred-and-thirty-two-million-four-hundred-and-twenty-thousand-sixty-nine which could maybe work? Another thing to consider is that we can technically add infinite prefixes to a number. For example, duotrigintillion. These however would increase in value exponentially faster than the length of the word would increase so they become unpractical quickly

    The language that actually has the largest average syllable number in word use might be Greek. Not only do we have some uber-long words through compounding, but we also have longer words than say English or French because there are significantly less different sounds in Greek. Even monosyllabic words like case or rest are περίπτωση and ξεκούραση/ανάπαυση which are all like 4 syllables! There are hardly any Greek words that are shorter than the respective English ones.

      Sanskrit on the other hand has large number of consonants and it uses lots of clusters and small words for basic ideas but if we agglutinate, it's not simply adding words, it's a complex change which changes sounds of the syllable which is governed by Sandhi rules eg. Nar+ indra= narendra, "I" changed to "E". This is most basic example but there more complex rules which is taught at graduation level.
      Regarding small words, in sanskrit, washing machine can be expressed in three syllable while iron press can be expressed in two syllables!

    I suppose it all depends on what you call a word. Syntactically, English has significantly shorter words than its Germanic relatives, because English uses spaces between compounded base words, but semantically, a compound word is a compound word, regardless of whether its components are separated by spaces, hyphens, or nothing at all. Terms like "driving licence", "customs officer" or even the word "compound word" itself are, in fact, single words, even though they are written (in English) as though they are two.

      Umm... the chemical name of titin is titin. Same with any other protein. Proteins (indeed a large number of chemicals) are not referred to by their verbal formulae because they are unnecessarily long and complex though it does significantly aid understanding for small compounds. Do you mean the full formulaic name documenting every amino acid? Well can you show me anywhere that has been written other than for the sole purpose of writing it?
      Anyway as MrFrostburner noted this is examining everyday words from natural languages not technical languages or vocabularies.

      But it is not a word in any language. It has never been published in any technical paper or included in any dictionary. It is a purely constructed term from IUAPC naming rules specifically to create an extremely long word. It is a perfect example of why such technical terms (not that it is a technical term) are not included in these sorts of conversations, especially not formulaic names of complex macromolecules.

      And when acronyms would lead to misunderstandings, usually a disambiguation is used instead of going full out. e.g. E. coli, and E. lenta would be ambiguous about being in the same genus, so usually one would most likely just add one more letter Es. coli, and Eg. lenta, rather than writing each genus out entirely every time.

    Ha, this reminds me of a great stand-up comedy routine that I saw where the guy was talking about how Hawaiian has so many vowels. And he asked a guy at the hotel for directions and the guy was like, "Well, first you go down blah blah blah and turn right on blah blah blah," etc. but he was saying all of these Hawaiian-sounding names and it was hilarious. Too bad I don't know the comedian's name.
    In other news, I play a lot of video games, including RPG's and when I want names for my characters I always look up the names of gods that are similar to the character I plan to make. Like a fire mage/wizard might be named after a fire god such as: Tcolawitze, a Zuni fire god. Anyhow, I like to trip people out with one of the first ones I ever used which was Hawaiian: Hi'iaka'ika'poli'o'Pele. Which literally means "Hiʻiaka in the bosom of Pele" Pele being the goddess of volcanoes and fire, and Hi'iaka being her sister.
    "Hiʻiaka was conceived in Tahiti, but carried in the form of an egg to Hawaiʻi by Pele, who kept the egg with her at all times to incubate it. From this, she earned her full name, Hiʻiaka-i-ka-poli-o-Pele: "Hiʻiaka in the bosom of Pele". Hiʻiaka is Pele's favorite and most loyal sister, although they have also had their differences. Hiʻiaka was the first God of this pantheon (the Pele family) born in Hawaii."
