Or as I remember it “floccynoccynillylipification” which is apparently the longest non technical word.
What does it mean? I’ll tell you in a bit…
I couldn’t remember how to spell it, but it lingers in the mind. I must have found it when I was little (I also learnt the Greek Alphabet off by heart from the dictionary) (alpha, beta, gamma, delta, epsilon, zeta, eta, theta, iota, kappa, lambda, mu, nu, xi, omicron, pi, roh, sigma, tau, upsilon, phi, chi, psi, omega) these may be wrong I just dragged them up from my memory.
By comparing these two things I don’t mean to indicate that the Greek Alphabet is useless! The root of many words can be traced back to the Greek Alphabet. And floccinaucinihilipilification is apparently made up of five Latin words strung together. No this post is about memory, in particular my silly and strange brain.
According to the Cambridge dictionary it means “the act of considering something to be not at all important or useful – used mainly as an example of a very long word”
It’s also considered to mean “worthless”. I hope you don’t think this post is?!

the post is not at all worthless, as knew nothing about such a word. thanks for sharing.
but whyyyyy? why were people making long words for anything?
