That is a fun fucking word.

Edit: I have got to be our worst member ever. I posrepped him for that, and still made this fucking useless post. I'm ashamed of myself.

Recalibrate.

I object to you adding three extra syllables at the end of a perfectly respectable word in a shallow attempt to make it longer than 'floccinaucinihilipilification'.

May I suggest that we restrict ourselves to words that can reliably be expected to appear in a dictionary?

Like, for instance, 'Feague'; to shove ginger up a horse's arse in order to make it look more lively before a competition or sale.

Is that with the emphasis on the 'ver'?

Con-trov-es-see

The es as in especially.

As opposed to how most Australians pronounce it:

Con-tra-ver-see

I don't know how to navigate the International Phonetic Alphabet. If I could, I'd have conveyed the pronunciation in it.

Alcar...

I always pronounced it Con-trov-es-see.

Schism
Skirmish
Annexation
Anus
Defribillate

That's how I pronounce it. Which is why I asked whether you meant the emphasis on the 'ver'; because I assumed you preferred the opposite of whatever I do.

Maybe you should stop making assumptions about the Australian accent based on your limited Sydney life experience.

In this damn global culture I can't hold down any one pronunciation for a great many words.

Capybara

Tetracycline
Intramammary
Intravenous
Facial Eczema

words that make you look clever when used.

Orgasmic, waffle, pavlova, ecstatic, egg, posterior, genitalia.

Edit: Also wafer, ouija, wallop, bollocks and cheerios.

It also works quite well with "verdict."

Actually I was originally just going to post antidisestablishmentarianism, but Wikipedia told me about the -ologist. As for floccinaucinihilipilification, this is a 'words we like the sound of' thread, not a Longest Word contest.

Ouch.

I've never heard controversy pronounced in the manner it was in the United Kingdom. Thus upon hearing it for the first time used by a news anchor for the BBC, I instantly fell in love with it.

Alcar...

Why don't you come down here and I'll pronounce words any way you like?

June baby. June.
