Did you know that a German 79-letters word is the European longest word? Or that the Irish Gaelic one is the shortest (longest) word in Europe? Ever noticed that some longest words directly relate to the history of the country they belong to? Such as in French, for instance: the French launched a revolution to get a constitution, they ended up inventing the word ‘Anticonstitutionnellement’ in fear of losing it! Or the Brits, they made everything they could to separate their Church from the Vatican: they came up with the word ‘Antidisestablishmentarianism’ in opposition to those who would want to diminish the Church of England! And what about the Norwegians: they created the Nobel Peace Prize and ended up with the word ‘Menneskerettighetsorganisasjonene’ which stands for “human rights organisations”… Fascinating isn’t it?
