    What's the longest - as in most letters - single syllable word you know.

    While we're on it, also list the longest English word you have ever seen (any number of syllables)

    You can just say how many letters it has and see if anyone can guess too I'll start - 8 letters for the single syllable, 45 letters for the longest.

  8. I'm gonna have to guess the longest one syllable word is...

    duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu uuuuuuuuuuuuuu
    *one hour later*
    uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu uuuuuuuuuuuuuu
    *a week later*
    uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhhhhhhhhh

    Yep, that's the longest one syllable word I know.

  9. Hmm, first word I thought of before opening this thread was, "through." But "straight" beat it by one letter.

    Another one asked of me one time was: "Name the only word w/ 3 sets of double letters." Of course, I immediately replied, "Mississippi." He said, "Nope, it's, "bookkeeper." He must've meant, "w/ 3 sequential sets of double letters," but didn't state that. After pointing that out, I stated that "successfully" is a third.
