     Antidisestablishmentarianism. Kids just love to flaunt superior linguistics.

    The same word ten times.

    The stupidest word ever imagined in my opinion.
    Just saying the word aloud sounds like one is making up silly syllables and putting them together willy-nilly as one goes along.

    Even if I spelled the word correctly ten times in a row, I'd still never have the word's spelling memorized, so I'll encourage them to learn it at a young age.

    Noah Webster didn't make as many changes as he should have.
