What's the Word Wednesday!



SESQUIPEDALIAN
 [ses-kwi-pi-dey-lee-uhn, -deyl-yuhn] adjective

1. given to using long words.
2. (of a word) containing many syllables

source: dictionary.com

The origins of this word use "foot-and-a-half long". I think this word perfectly exhibits its definition. Keep adding new Wednesday Words with me, and you too, can be sesquipedalian!
