Oh, such an elaborate name you have. And, besides that you think that you are an alien, are you from any other species? Maybe a combination.

Talking There is no limit to the length of a Bangla word...

Ever read the oldish (Sanskritized) Bangla written by, say Madhusudan, Bankimchandra etc....
Well, theoretically at least, Sanskrit words can be as long as you wish. And any acceptable Sanskrit word is a perfectly acceptable Bangla word as well (albeit maybe an archic one)...
So how about dashapraharaNadhaariNii? Which means the one with Ten Hands. Used to be used for Durga earlier...
I'm no pundit of Sanskrit and I'm sure others can fish out a lot more of these kinds of words....

Ms. APN, the largest real word in the english language is considered to be floccinaucinihilipilification at 29 letters, according the guinness book of world records. The word that you had quoted is the largest made-up word by this dude so that he could get credit for contributing the english language's longest word. But sadly though, even though his word is in the dictionary, he is not given that recognition in literary circles. Nevertheless, at the end of the day, all this hoopla about the longest word is just a further illustration of men's fixation on length! And one would think that big words should mean big things.... but floccinaucinihilipilification means exactly what it itself is..... "worthless"!
