Help me/us test a new plugin by posting in this thread with the best answer you can think of! Once you've posted.... the idea behind the new plugin will become clearer. And in a couple of days you'll know exactly what is going on!  And now for the question.....
How many letters are there in the longest one syllable word in the English Language? ( And an example if you're not guessing! ) |

SQUIRRELLED
Though the more commonly accepted American English version carries only one L, both Oxford and Merriam-Webster dictionaries recognize this alternate spelling and condone its one syllable pronunciation (think “world”), making it the longest non-coined monosyllabic English word at 11 letters.

WOW! The above is the accepted answer for the moment ( And Admin ( FKA RADesign ) earns himself a 'GURU' star ! ) plus a guru point for me up-voting ( pressing like ) Now, can someone do better? EDIT: Now you can see how this works Check out the banner in Admin ( FKA RADesign ) 's post and the first post in this thread. EDIT 2: I'll be putting up a thread for this plugin over the weekend which will explain more. Also, check out the thread list for this board and now that this thread has an accepted answer, there should be a [Solved] next to the thread title. |

12 letters \"schtroumpfed\". What does it mean? It\'s French for \"smurfed\". Smurfs tend to say \"smurf\" and \"smurfed\" in every sentence. The French Smurfs, \"Les Schtroumpfs\", would say words like \"schtroumpf\" and \"schtroumpfed\". |

I may be a bit confused, but after posting a letter amount and word some 15 hours ago, I don't see what the others have.
