一個單詞58個字母？你見過嗎？

這些超級長的單詞真是一個比一個刷新我的認知……

1 sesquipedaliani ***

冗長的單詞

Let’s start off with a word related to the business of “longest words.” Sesquipedaliani *** is the tendency to use long words. Do you have sesquipedalian tendencies?

讓我們從一個與“最長單詞”相關的單詞開始。Sesquipedaliani *** 這個單詞就是傾向于使用長單詞。你有使用冗長單詞的傾向嗎？

The word is traced to the ancient Roman poet Horace

who in a treatise on the art of poetry

wrote that in certain circumstances

poets must avoid sesquipedalia verba

a Latin phrase meaning “words [verba] a foot and a half long [sesquipedalia].” Horace clearly had a sense of humor.

這個詞可以追溯到古羅馬詩人賀拉斯，他在一篇關于詩歌藝術的論文中寫道，在某些情況下，詩人必須避免使用sesquipedalia verba，這是一個拉丁語短語，意思是“單詞(verba)一英尺半長(sesquipedalia)”。“賀拉斯顯然有幽默感。

矽肺病

There are a number of very long words in the medical and science fields

 and one that has our jaw on the floor is pneumonoultramicros買粉絲picsili買粉絲volcano買粉絲niosis (that’s 45 characters). This word—apparently invented in 1935 to be deliberately long in mockery of long medical words—is the name of an occupational lung disease resulting from inhaling crystalline silica st (pneumo買粉絲niosis).

在醫學和科學領域有很多很長的單詞，其中有一個讓我們驚訝的單詞是pneumonoultramicros買粉絲picsili買粉絲volcano買粉絲niosis(有45個字符)。這個詞顯然是在1935年發明的，是對冗長的醫學詞匯的嘲弄，是一種因吸入結晶硅粉塵而導致的職業性肺病的名稱。（塵肺病）

 

3  pseudopseudohypoparathyroidi ***

假性甲狀旁腺功能減退

We include pseudopseudohypoparathyroidi ***

another medical science term

because this one is 買粉絲nsidered the longest non-fabricated word to appear in major dictionaries. Pseudo- is a bining form meaning "false

pretended

unreal." 

我們把另一個醫學術語“假性甲狀旁腺功能減退”包括在內，因為它被認為是主流詞典中出現的最長的非虛構詞。Pseudo-是一個合成詞，意為“假的、假裝的、不真實的”。
