Today I remembered this word I had learnt in the 5th Grade. Pneumonoultramiscroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis. It was meant to be a technical term for a lung disease that has to do with dust and ash(of volcanic substance), that is also, apparently, a very long English word. I found my dwelling on this word oddly amusing.
