This longest unchallenged nontechnical word That not many directories know or have heard Often times it's used in a humorous way It's pronunciation is quite hard to say Its numbers of letters, I count 29 The meaning of it I aim to define The action or habit of something as worthless A word it seems that serves not much purpose An interpretation of this means "for nothing" Found in the Eton Grammar textbook in Latin Used by an English poet in work of his own In 1741 by William Shenstone Not used much today, wonder why this is true? This sesquipedalian has not much value!
