That's the most complicated word I've heard - so it's in response to the thread title question. It isn't my own language, but hey, who cares? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Oh, I almost forgot one silly word.
Estonians combine 2 words if they want to say something with a different meaning altogether. For example, 'ice cream' would be 'icecream' in Estonian. That's the reason why there's a word Jää(ice) + äär(edge) = Jäääär. |

Eh? My hometown in Hungary is the most complicated word you've heard? It's Budapest. Not really that complicated. Though my mum was born in a place called Sátoraljaújhely which is kinda complicated [img]tongue.gif[/img]

~ rough translation: cliff town that clings fast [img]smile.gif[/img] or my very favoritest a'a'a ~ nasty rough rock that forms when molten lava meets the sea, creating reefs. so is that really what it's called? or is it just the painful wail you make when you walk barefoot over it? i love hawaiian. V***V

No worries [img]smile.gif[/img] Hopefully the intended humor came across in my post, and not any bad intentions ('cause there were none).
That's the problem with GD... some of these threads take on a life of their own, and if you haven't been riding 'em from the start, it's awfully hard to get caught up Besides, there have got to be some nasty German words out there... things where you keep appending and adding and subjugating and so one...
