Longest wOrd..

Floccinaucinihilipilification - Longest nontechnical word

With 29 letters, it is the longest non-technical word in the first edition of the Oxford English Dictionary (OED), which presents it as "enumerated in a well-known rule from the Eton Latin Grammar". The OED dates its first use in literature at 1741 in William Shenstone's Works in Prose and Verse: "I loved him for nothing so much as his flocci-nauci-nihili-pili-fication of money".

Though the OED gives no specifics on its derivation, the word is said to have been invented as an erudite joke by a student of Eton College, who, upon consulting a Latin textbook, found four ways of saying "don't care" ("don't give a hoot") and combined them:

flocci facere (from floccus, -i a wisp or piece of wool)
nauci facere (from naucum, -i a trifle)
nihili facere (from nihil, -i nothing; something valueless (lit. "not even a thread" from ni+hilum))
pili facere (from pilus, -i a hair; a bit or a whit; something small and insignificant)
It is often spelled with hyphens, and has even spawned the back formations floccinaucical (inconsiderable or trifling) and floccinaucity (the essence or quality of being of small importance). The OED appears to have overlooked floccinaucinihilipilificatious, which has one letter more than the nominal form, and means "small" or "insignificant." When the common English nominal suffix -ness is then added to the above adjective, a thirty-four letter noun floccinaucinihilipilificatiousness is formed, which means "smallness" or "insignificance."

hOw tO kEep yOur crUsh a secret..

Everyone has had that "butterflies in the tummy" feeling before. There is that certain special someone whose smile makes your heart melt. This guide can help you keep your crush a secret from the world - so only you get your special feeling.

these are the stEps how to keep your crush a secret..

1. Do not stare. Staring at him/her won't do anything. They or someone else could catch you in the act. If possible, stop your habit of staring at them. Or, just make sure no one (including them!) is watching, and just quickly side-glance at them.

2. Avoid telling anyone that you have a crush on this person. Especially someone with a reputation for being a gossip/big mouth and untrustworthy. If you don't feel one hundred percent sure someone won't use it against you, don't tell. You never know when you will fight with someone. They might use blackmail. You don't want it.

3. Treat your crush exactly the same way as you treat all your acquaintances. Be polite, but not overly attentive. If you tag along with them too much, they'll be annoyed or someone else will find out that you like him/her! But then again, you don't want to be too shy around them, either. They might consider you weird or be suspicious.

4. Be yourself. If your special someone ends up liking you, you want them to fall for who you really are, not someone you pretended to be.

5. Keeping a diary might be a good way to tell someone you've got a crush on someone, without letting anyone know. (Except if someone reads it.) If you are embarrassed about your crush, this can be a good way of looking at it objectively.

here are some tips for you!!

-If you catch your crush looking at you, there is a good chance you have a mutual attraction. Loosen up a bit, and make more eye contact.

-Smile in a warm, friendly way, but don't speak of your feelings until you feel ready.

-Take your time - a secret crush is fun.

WARNING!!

Don't get too intense when she or he is around. Other people may figure out your crush and reveal it to them.

If they ask you if you have a crush on them, never deny it. Just try to change the subject, or if you're feeling risky, bounce the question right back at them and see how they react. There's a chance that they may be asking you because they feel the same way.

Don't stalk him or her. Following your crush around too much is just creepy and will kill any blooming feelings they might have for you.

Avoid stuff like doodling their name on papers; that's a dead giveaway. If you write about your crush in your diary or journal, make sure you keep it somewhere very safe. Never bring your journal to school! There's a very good chance someone will steal it.

WELL DONE!! :D
