    That's what I found (lol)

    <<(27) HONORIFICABILITUDINITATIBUS = honorableness.
    The word first appeared in English in 1599, and in 1721 was listed by Bailey's Dictionary as the longest word in English. It was used by Shakespeare in Love's Labor's Lost (Costard; Act V, Scene I):

    "O, they have lived long on the alms-basket of words.
    I marvel thy master hath not eaten thee for a word;
    for thou art not so long by the head as
    honorificabilitudinitatibus: thou art easier
    swallowed than a flap-dragon." >>

    honorificabilitudinitatibus: thou art easier
    : wtf?
