Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis

Chiqui: "Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis is the longest word. According to Wikipedia"
Bons: "Anong ibig sabihin niyan!!!!?" (What does that mean!!!?)
Chie: "Something to do with the respiratory system that is caused by ultra microscopic silicon stuff that come from volcanoes. I guess."

Hinanap ni Chie sa Wikipedia. (Chie looked for it in Wikipedia)

Chie: "See, I'm right! According to Wiki, Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis succeeded electrophotomicrographically as the longest word in the English language recognized by the National Puzzlers' League at the opening session of the organization's 103d semi-annual meeting held yesterday at the Hotel New Yorker. The puzzlers explained that the forty-five-letter word is the name of a special form of silicosis caused by ultra-microscopic particles of silica volcanic dust."

After a few lines...

Chie:"Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateaturipukakapikimaungahoronukupokaiwhe
nuakitanatahu. At 85 letters, it has been listed in the Guinness Book of Records as one of the longest place names in the world."
Bons:
(Tahimik)
Bons: "Game! Contest tayo! Kung sino man ang makakabigkas niyan ng walang hingahan ililibre ko sa Spiral!"
(I will treat whoever can pronounce that word without breathing at all at Spiral Restaurant!)
Chie and Chiqui:
(Nagpractice).

I have the craziest friends.
