1. Overview

Blend a one-syllable word and a two-syllable word into a longer compound word.

This activity is very similar to the previous one, Making Compound Words (D1). The difference is that the compound words in this activity are made up of one one-syllable word and one two-syllable word. Because the words are longer, the child’s memory skills will be challenged more.

Video: How to play Making A Longer Word

Say two words for your child, a one-syllable word and a two-syllable word, that can be combined to form a three-syllable compound word. You will put a significant pause (one second long) between the two smaller words. Then tell him to put the two short words together into a longer word.

Adult: You did a good job putting two short words
            together to make a new word.
            Now I’m going to say two words that are a little longer.
            I want you to listen and put the words together
            to make one long word.
            Let me show you how: sand [1-second pause] castle.
            What word? Sandcastle. Now you do it.
            Listen: sand [pause] castle. What word?
Child: Sandcastle!
Adult: Good job! Let’s do another one.
            Listen: neighbor [pause] hood. What’s the word?
Child: Neighborhood!

Go through the other words in the word list until your child stops paying attention. You can continue the activity at your next session.

NOTE: Hand motions (as demonstrated in the video) are an option for this activity. Another way to use hand gestures is to face the child and extend the fist of your right hand in front of you as you say the first word. Next, extend the fist of your left hand in front of you while saying the last word. Leave a little space between your two fists. Then bring your fists together when you ask “What word? ”

4. Confidence Builder

If the child struggles, put a shorter pause between the two one-syllable words as you say them. Then gradually lengthen the pause until the two words are said with a full one-second pause between them.

5. Extension

Extension A: If your child has mastered the art of putting together three-syllable compound words, challenge him with some four-syllable compound words. Here is a list of words you can use:

• four-syllable compound word list

Extension B: Say the first part of a compound word, and ask the child to give you the last part. There will be multiple possible answers that are correct. For example, for the first part snow, the child could say snowman, snowball, or snowflake. You may need to give a hint by pointing, gesturing, or acting out a possible answer. For example, you could say the word eye and then point to a ball (for eyeball), to your eyebrow or to your eyelashes.

7. Small Groups (2-5 children)

Lesson Objective: Children will hear two spoken words of one syllable or more and combine them orally to make a new, multi-syllable word with its own meaning.

GELDS (Georgia Early Learning & Development Standards): CLL6.4e

Georgia Standards of Excellence: ELAGSEKRF2.b

Common Core State Standards: CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RF.K.2.B

Adaptation: Read the main activity, watch the video, and follow the instructions above, with the following changes:

Teach the children hand gestures to illustrate the combining of two words into one new word. For example, have children hold out their fists, several inches apart, to represent each one-syllable word as they repeat the words. Then have them move their two fists together and say the new compound word.

Reinforcement: Use the word list to quiz the group on making compound words. Use the motions listed below for the children to use as a way to respond when they know the answer:

• Round 1: Clap (when you know the answer)
• Round 2: Snap or tap your fingers
• Round 3: Pat your head

Use this Reinforcement at Home form to tell parents and guardians how they can reinforce lessons outside the classroom.

Why learn long words?

Learning new words is an important skill to have, but many people struggle with this. It’s common for people to avoid long words because they don’t know how to pronounce them or because they are intimidated by the extra letters.

Using words that are longer can help you sound smarter, and avoid embarrassment when other people use words that are not common. Use this random words generator to make a list of long words for you to study and learn, or to find interesting words.

Some of the longest words in the English language are not necessarily hard words to learn. A word’s length is not indicative of its difficulty. Words have a large impact on one’s vocabulary. In order to expand their vocabulary, people often use a random generator to create new words.

Learn the longest Words

There are words in our language that can be very long. Learning some of these can help you to understand the language better and make more sense out of what people are saying.

When common long words are used to express yourself, you are having a new perspective on your thoughts. In fact, the use of these words can get you more creative. When trying to get a point across, long words may be the only way for you to convey it.

What are the longest words in English?

We actually can’t list the longest word in English on this page because it takes up 189,819 letters and takes 3 hours to say it. You can see an abbreviated snippet below. The meaning of the word is The chemical composition of titin, the largest known protein. That it is even a word is disputed. So Which word takes 3 hours to say? Here is the closest we can get to it.

Methionylthreonylthreonylglutaminylalanyl…isoleucine

Methionylglutaminylarginyltyrosylglutamyl…serine is at least accepted as a word and is the chemical name of E. coli bacteria.

Lopadotemachoselachogaleokranioleipsano…person is a fictional dish of food.

Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis is a disease

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious is a word made up for the book and movie Mary Poppins

Pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism is a hereditary medical disorder

Antidisestablishmentarianism – meaning basically against the separation of church and state.

Honorificabilitudinitatibus – The state of someone that can achieve honors. The longest word in all of Shakespeares’ works.

Floccinaucinihilipilification – The act of describing something as worthless.

I hope you enjoy this Random Long Words Generator and have fun finding new long words!

Last week, as part of the Lexicon Valley podcast, I talked about how the word discombobulate grew out of a vogue in the Jacksonian era for making up jocular polysyllabic words with a pseudo-classical air. That impulse for concocting silly-sounding sesquipedalianisms has often bubbled up in the history of English.

I first looked into this history when I was an editor for American dictionaries at Oxford University Press. For the OUP blog, I wrote a post («Hippopotomonstrosesquipedalianism!») in which I broke the news that many of the candidates for «longest words in English» are nothing more than fabricated «stunt words.» That tradition goes back to such fine words as the 27-letter honorificabilitudinitatibus, which appears in Shakespeare, and the 29-letter floccinaucinihilipilification, cobbled together from Latin words taught at Eton College (flocci, nauci, nihili, pili, meaning «at little value»), topped off by the -fication suffix to mean «the action or habit of estimating as worthless.»

Even the 45-letter whopper, pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis (aka «P45»), was evidently created as a hoax at the 1935 National Puzzlers League convention. As it turns out, this supposed name for a miner’s disease has never appeared in the medical literature, and was formed by stuffing a real word, pneumonoconiosis, with plausible-sounding material (ultramicroscopic + silico + volcano). Nonetheless, the word has entered various dictionaries, and as we recently learned has been incorporated into creative writing projects by British schoolchildren.

But while P45 doesn’t sound playful, words created in the manner of discombobulate or its comrade-in-arms absquatulate clearly aren’t intended to be taken seriously. Both words were created by draping Latin-sounding affixes around a funny syllable (bob, squat) that lets everyone in on the joke. Over time, that game was extended by packing in more syllables, which is how discombobulated could give rise to such synonyms as discumgalligumfricated and discomgollifusticated, both noted by the University of Nebraska English professor Louise Pound nearly a century ago.

In her 1916 word list, Pound also documented eellogofusciouhipoppokunurious, meaning «excellent,» and ramsasspatorious, meaning «excited.» Meanwhile, her University of Nebraska associate Elsie L. Warnock assembled a collection of superlatives including alamonagorgeous, slobbergulluious, supergobosnoptious, and superlobgoshious. (Warnock’s list caught the eye of H.L. Mencken, who cited it in his 1921 classic, The American Language.)

From words like superlobgoshious, it’s easy to see how you can eventually get to the 34-letter supercalifragilisticexpialidocious, a word that has been floating around in various forms at least since the ’30s. It later gained fame, of course, from the Mary Poppins song written by Richard and Robert Sherman, who recalled hearing it in their youth at a summer camp. The roots of that «super» word have been much disputed — see my 2012 Word Routes column for much more. But in truth, regardless of its exact origins, supercalifragilisticexpialidocious is the end result of a centuries-long tradition of polysyllabic play.

For the long time, lexicographers have been debating about the legitimacy of certain words as possible entrants to the English dictionary. For me, the longer the word and the more the number of syllables in it, the more interesting it becomes. Find out some of the most exquisitely coined words in the English language from this article.

Longest word

Methionylthreonylthreonylglutaminylarginyl […] isoleucine
Here’s the deal: the world’s longest English word has exactly 189,819 letters in it and it takes 3 hours and 33 minutes to pronounce it completely!

Wondering what commands such an enormous (literally) honor? Well, it is the chemical name of the world’s largest known protein called titin or connectin. It is made up of 244 individually folded protein domains which in turn are connected by unstructured peptide sequences (largest known polypeptide containing 34,350 amino acids in the human body). Fascinating as the name of this wonder is, there exists some debate as to whether this technical term can actually be considered a word. But even then, mesmerizing it is, isn’t it? And guess what? Here in this article, you will actually get to see this ginormous word if you read on.

But even otherwise, the English language is a huge storehouse of long words that I find rather satisfying to pronounce. They are grand tongue twisters that make perfect sense. Two of my favorite words for the longest time have been inconsequential and quintessentially. I am psychologically satiated to the hilt every time I utter them and utter them a lot I do.
