Somebody was just having a laugh when they made that word. Fear of long words...

 

Another long word (since we have all the "hard" ones out of the way) let's get a short one. 

Antidisestablishmentarianism.

And a long one:

Titin

Wait what? Titin? Now just wait one second and let me explain. Methionylthreonylthreonylglutaminylarginyl...isoleucine is a the chemical name of titin, the largest known protein. The chemical name is stupidly long, at 189,819 letters long. Admittedly, it is not in the dictionary, and is a disputed word, but yeah.
