floccinaucinihilipilification
ˌflɒksɪˌnɔːsɪˌnɪhɪlɪˌpɪlɪfɪˈkeɪʃ(ə)n/
noun: rare the action or habit of estimating something as worthless.
I love this word because I always have to google it to remember how to spell it and to prove to people it's actually a word. One of my greatest achievements that I have never been able to replicate, and my brothers dont believe me, is that I once got my voice recognition on my phone to type it with correct spelling when I said it.
As far as I understand it is pronounced. ..

Haha, most people insist on it and then are surprised it is a real word. I have yet to meet someone who has simply taken my word for it. To be fair though, I didn't believe the person who told me so there is that :P This is why I love the word though. It so embodies what I love about the English language. It's like practicality is a side thought that those who built the language take into consideration only if said practicality is convenient to the situation.
