The longest word in the dictionary without an E. Probably to specific to even wonder what it is. But recently I found out what it was. So if you're wondering what it is, here it is. Floccinaucinihilipilification. It's definition being the following:

 The action or habit of estimating something as worthless 

As said here: https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/floccinaucinihilipilification

Here is a link to a video showing you how to pronounce the word.

But who actually has used this word in a sentence. I haven't heard this word until one of my teachers used the word the class got confused as to what it means. Now I after class was over all I could think about was how that word could be used in actual sentence. So far I haven't come up with a sentence.

But anyways, that was just something I wanted to share with the steemit community. If anyone can come up with a sentence using the word (and make it something the average human being can use in a sentence. Anyways, that's all I had to say. So yeah. Cya
