User: tôi có hỏi xem có ai biết từ rhombicosidodecahedron không, vẫn chưa thấy ai trả lời. Tôi nghĩ từ tương ứng với từ này trong tiếng Pháp là rhombicosidodécaèdre.

Mình có câu trả lời như thế này:

Q. What is the longest word in the dictionary?
A. It depends . . .
It might be supercalifragilisticexpialidocious (which appears in the Oxford English Dictionary), unless you want to count names of diseases (such as ''pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis'', defined by the OED as "a factitious word alleged to mean ''a lung disease caused by the inhalation of very fine silica dust'' but occurring chiefly as an instance of a very long word"), places (such as ''Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch'', a village in Wales), chemical compounds (apparently there is one that is 1,913 letters long), and also a few words found only in Joyce''s Finnegans Wake.
Or perhaps smiles is the longest word ?" after all, there is a mile between the first letter and the last.

Nói thêm về mấy từ ngộ ngộ này nhá !!!
Cái từ pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis là từ dài nhất đã từng được thấy trong một cuốn từ điển không chuyên ngành. Tuy nhiên đại đa số người ta cho rằng từ này mới là từ dài nhất tiếng Anh:
Antidisestablishmentarianism
Định nghĩa: a movement opposed to the separation of church and state
Tiếng Anh là ngôn ngữ cho phép tạo từ mới tương đối thoải mái, cho nên rất dễ tạo nên những từ dài loằng ngoằng:
-disestablishment- - the separation of Church and State (specifically in this context it is the political movement of the 1860s in Great Britain)
disestablishment-arian - a person in support of the movement designed to bring about the above (hereafter called the ''first'' movement).
anti-disestablishment-arian - a person belonging to the movement opposed to the first movement.
neo-anti-disestablishment-arian - a person belonging to the new version of the movement opposed to the first movement. (Appropriate because in this context the original antidisestablishment movement had become defunct).
contra-neo-anti-disestablishment-arian - a person belonging to the movement opposed to the new version of the movement opposed to the first movement.
contra-neo-anti-disestablishment-arian-alistically - behaving in the manner of a person belonging to the movement opposed to the new version of the movement opposed to the first movement.
Thậm chí:
pseudo-contra-neo-anti-disestablishment-arian-alistically - false behaviour in the manner of a person belonging to the movement opposed to the new version of the movement opposed to the first movement.
pro-pseudo-contra-neo-anti-disestablishment-arian-alistically - in favour of the false behaviour in the manner of a person belonging to the movement opposed to the new version of the movement opposed to the first movement.

Some strange English words

Most people are aware that the letter y can serve as both a consonant and a vowel. However, cwm (pronounced "koom", defined as a steep-walled hollow on a hillside) is a rare case of a word using w as a vowel, as is crwth (pronounced "krooth", a type of stringed instrument). Both words are in MWCD. They derive from the Welsh use of w as a vowel. The word cwm is commonly applied to Welsh place names; cwms of glacial origin are a common feature of Welsh geography. It is also used to describe features in the Himalaya.
There is only one common word in English that has five vowel letters in a row: queueing
The word knightsbridge has six consonant letters in a row, as does latchstring.

Chả có từ nào quái bằng từ " OK ".
Đến mấy bác thổ dân cũng biết dùng từ này mặc dù 1/4 thậm chí là 1/100 chữ tiếng Anh cũng không biết.

Nhân tiện lạm bàn về nguồn gốc chữ OK một cái.
I?Tm OK means ?~I?Tm fine?T. But if you say the weather?Ts OK in a lazy drawl, it could mean ''so-so''. When you respond with an OK at the end of someone?Ts explanation, you could be saying, ?~Alright, I get what you?Tre saying?T. And when someone explains that ?~This is the way to do it, OK??T it means, ?~Have you understood??T
One abbreviation, many meanings. And like all delightful accidents of history, the origin of this multi-faceted OK seems to lie in a humourous misspelling of the words ?~all correct?T as ?~orl korrect?T, approximately 170 years ago, in the US.
So says the dictionaries team of the Oxford Word and Language Service (OWLS), whose job it is to answer the queries of curious users of the English language. OWLS was launched by the Oxford University Press in 1983, which periodically publishes a compilation of many such queries. Among those questions is one on the origin of OK.
Many other explanations have been put forth, such as the Greek ola kala (''it is good''), and the French aux Cayes , (''from Cayes'', Cayes being a Haitian port known for its good quality rum). Some have also wondered if OK originated from the initials of Obeidah Kelly, a railway freight agent who wrote his initials OK on the documents that he had checked!
?~Orl korrect?T seems to have won because it is supported by documentary evidence. Its earliest recorded use can be found in the Boston Morning Post of March 23, 1839. Though, in the 1840s, supporters of a politician Martin Van Buren formed the OK (Old Kinderhook) Club, named so after the birthplace Kinderhook (New York) of the politician.
In fact, a judicial case of 1935 was decided on the basis of the ''orl korrect'' origin of OK! It was a case involving a Japanese rice merchant, Nippon Menkwa Kabushiki Kaesha versus Dawson?Ts Bank, in the US. The rice merchant had written OK along with his initials on some of the invoices. The case was decided on the basis that OK was to be taken as the full words ?~All Correct?T!
Now someone needs to find out how and when OK got modified to Okidokey! Any takers apart from OWLS?
