Perkataan Inggeris Dan Melayu Terpanjang di Dunia


Aku taknak cerita panjang, terlalu banyak perkataan terpanjang di dunia yang menjadi perbualan,kadang-kadang tak masuk akal. Tapi aku kongsi satu fakta jerlah dari Oxford Dictionary tapi ia adalah dalam bahasa Inggeris. Aku percaya,kalau bahasa negara lain,silap-silap lagi panjang danterkata-kata oleh lidah. Korang baca petikan dibawah ini,malas pulak nak translate...heheheh...


The longest words in Oxford Dictionaries Online are:

  • antidisestablishmentarianism opposition to the disestablishment of the Church of England - 28 letters
  • floccinaucinihilipilification the estimation of something as worthless - 29 letters
  • pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis a supposed lung disease - 45 letters

You're unlikely to come across these words in genuine use: they're generally just provided as answers to questions about the longest words in the English language. In terms of sheer size, however, the longest word to be found in Britain is the Welsh place name Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch. For obvious reasons, it's usually abbreviated to Llanfair PG.


The 20-volume historical Oxford English Dictionary includes other very long words, most of which are highly technical. These include

otorhinolaryngological - 22 letters
immunoelectrophoretically - 25 letters
psychophysicotherapeutics - 25 letters
thyroparathyroidectomized - 25 letters
pneumoencephalographically - 26 letters
radioimmunoelectrophoresis - 26 letters
psychoneuroendocrinological - 27 letters
hepaticocholangiogastrostomy - 28 letters
spectrophotofluorometrically - 28 letters
pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism - 30 letters

People sometimes ask whether a DNA string can be considered as the longest English word, given that they can run to many thousands of letters. The answer is no: they're regarded as chemical names rather than genuine words in the sense of meaningful items of vocabulary. The same is true of the formal names of chemical compounds. These can be almost unlimited in length (for example, aminoheptafluorocyclotetraphosphonitrile, 40 letters) and many contain numerals, Roman and Greek letters, and other symbols, as well as ordinary letters. We don't tend to regard these terms as proper 'words'.

So, macam mana? faham tak? kalau tak faham buat-buat faham,yang penting kat situ kita boleh nampak banyak perkataan yang panjang-panjang dan yang paling panjang adalah yang mempunya 45 huruf tu dan aku tak mampu nak membunyikannya. Pernah terpikir nak tahu tak perkata terpanjang dalam bahasa kita? Berikut adalah contoh di bawah yang di katakan perkataan terpanjang bahasa Melayu di Malaysia :


DIKETIDAKNYAHCASDIVERSIFIKASIELEKTROSTATIKKAN


MENYETIDAKNYAHCASDIVERSIFIKASIELEKTROSTATIKKAN


PENYETIDAKNYAHCASDIVERSIFIKASIELEKTROSTATIKKAN

dan ada satu lagi perkataan aku baru jumpa tadi iaitu :


"KEPALAHOTAKKAUBERJAMBOL" (23 huruf)



p/s : Jangan mare, perkataan baru aku jumpa itu sekadar gurauan...heheh
