Hardest Words to Spell

The Top Ten
1 Donaudampfschiffahrtselektrizitätenhauptbetriebswerkbauunterbeamtengesellschaft

I cannot spell any of these names.

2 Methionylthreonylthreonylglutaminylarginyltyrosylglutamylserylleucylphenylalanylalanylglutaminylleuc yllysylglutamylarginyllysylglutamylglycylalanylphenylalanylvalylprolylphenylalanylvalylthreonylleucylgl ycylaspartylprolylglycylisoleucylglutamylglutaminy

I'm not trying to be rude, but this is awful!

Hardest word to pronounce in the world, and I can't even pronounce it. Then imagine having to spell it.

3 Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis
4 Full name for titin

No one can spell that, not even a spelling bee champion, because it will take you longer just to spell it. This should definitely be at the top of the list because this one word has 189,819 letters in its name and it takes 3 or 4 hours just to pronounce it. And when you read it, that one word spans over 70 pages, which is way too long and too hard.

Extremely long word. It has 189,819 letters in its name and it will take you at least 10-18 hours to spell it. But if this is your first time spelling it, then it's going to take you 28 hours or more.

5 Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia

I saw this one on the Uberfacts Twitter. It's ironically a phobia of long words.

6 Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch

The funny thing is that many people mispronounce this name. Since it's a Welsh city name, the words have to be pronounced the way a Welsh speaker would pronounce it. I usually hear people trying to pronounce the name using English rules, saying something like Lanfair... When really, it's pronounced something like Shanvyre... All I'm trying to say here is that this name is quite difficult to pronounce as it's both long and doesn't follow familiar rules in pronunciation.

Wow, I love to spell long words like this one. But I don't understand it. It doesn't make any sense to me.

7 Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateapokaiwhenuakitanatahu

This is the longest place name in the world.

The definition of this word is worthless.
