最長的英文單詞

到底哪個單詞是世界上最長的單詞，相信不少人都有這個困惑，于是現(xiàn)在謎底這樣揭開了！

　　各個領(lǐng)域造就的最長單詞不一而論，大部分情況下公認最長的單詞是已知最大蛋白——肌聯(lián)蛋白的IUPAC名，由189,819個字母組成，從Methionylthreonylthreonylglutaminylarginyltyrosylglutamylserylleucylphenylalanylalanylglutaminylleucyllysylglutamylarginyllysyl…開始到…glutamylasparaginylglutaminylglutaminylserylglutamylasparaginylglutaminylglutaminylserxisoleucine結(jié)束，大約需要3小時讀完。[1]

　　排除這個單詞后，其次是：

　　pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis (共有45個字母)

　　[ˈnju:mənəuˌʌltrəˌmaikrəsˈkɔpikˈsilikəvɔlˈkeinəukəuniˈəusis]
