(This word has appeared in the American Chemical Society's Chemical Abstracts and is thus considered by some to be the longest real word.)
This is the chemical name of the largest known protein. It is an astonishing 189,819 letters long. However it is purely a technical term and though written in English it isn't a "dictionary" term and thus the first answerer is the most correct
