The Big Word Project

We received an email from Cat a while back when we did the BBC Worldservice interview. I (Paddy) embarrassed myself as I did not know how to pronounce our longest word, Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis and Christina decided to help me out. I decided that everyone should learn how to pronounce this massive word, if even just to impress people in the pub. Although I dont know how well it would work as a chat up line…

so i just heard you guys on the bbc world radio station and i thought i would check out the site…its really kool its like the million dollar site project…

in the interview you did not know how to pronounce the longest word:

pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis
its really a series of short words together and actually very easy to pronounce:

new-mono-ultra-micro-scopic-silico-volcano-con-e-o-sis

any way what ever…i really like your site it was a really good idea
