每週主題: A word in your native language which you find it hard to pronounce

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious (IPA: suːpərˌkælɪˌfrædʒəlˌɪstɪkˌɛkspiːˌælɪˈdoʊʃəs )

What a word!


When I read this weekly topic, “a word which you find it hard to pronounce”, I immediately thought about one of the beloved childhood classics, Mary Poppins.

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious is an English word, with 34 letters, that was a song with the same title in the Disney fantasy musical movie of 1964. 

The word supercalifragilisticexpialidocious in Mary Poppins is said to be simply a nonsense word used as "something to say when you have nothing to say", but the world has changed connotation in the pasts 50 years to be found on a vocabulary as; “extraordinarily good; wonderful”.  

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious, can you say it?
