Hippopotomonstrosesquipedalianism

Little Hippo loves big words. His favorite big word is hippopotomonstrosesquipedalianism, which means "the love of big words".

I do love big, long words, but I sprained my brain like that once. I had a headache for days! So, use big words with care.

Hi there,

I have a inquiry for the webmaster/admin here at hippograms.blogspot.com.

May I use some of the information from this blog post right above if I provide a link back to this website?

Thanks,

Hi,

Thanks for sharing this link - but unfortunately it seems to be not working? Does anybody here at hippograms.blogspot.com have a mirror or another source?


Cheers,
Harry

Hiya, Harry! The link to the OUP blog should work, but if not, try this: http://blog.oup.com/2007/08/long_words/.

Oliver and Daniel, yes, you may use information from the blog with a link back and if it is safe for little hippo eyes to see! Let me know where you post so I can visit!
