Although some languages have longer words, English does have a number of words which use a lot of letters.
The longest word in the Oxford English Dictionary is a 45-letter word for a lung disease: pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis.
The longest one-syllable English words are nine letters long:
scratched, stretched, scrounged, scrunched and strengths.
