How do you pronounce pneumonoultramicroscopic-silicovolcanoconiosis?

You're right to ask! That's a real word, but it's a mouthful.

Here's how you pronounce it:

noo-MOO-nool-trah-my-kroh-SKOP-ik sil-i-koh-vol-KAY-noh-koh-nee-OH-sis

It's a mouthful, for sure! It's a lung disease caused by inhaling very fine silica dust.
