Head fissure #4



The longest word in the English language which all of its letters are in alphabetical order is Aegilops--which is a grass genus.

If you're going to be a Scrabble snob and argue that Aegilops is Latin AND a proper noun, well, not only are you a pest, but here are the next three longest words falling under the same definition--all two-letters shorter: almost, biopsy, chintz.

Bam.
