Antidisestablishmentarianism

Visible to anyone in the world
Edited by Jonathan Vernon, Sunday, 1 June 2014, 06:19

I satisfied a life long itch to use this 24 letter word in an essay and successfully did so in a masters level history essay on the way TV producers tell 'The Great War' story. On closer inspection the markers ought to have deleted it as 'antiestablishmentarianism' would have been correct. Next essay I'll see if I can get 'disconbobulate' in somewhere.

Didn't Tony Blair use a word similar to 'disconbobulate', in his autobiography titled, Journey?
