Ah, that wikipedia page lists "Donadampfschiffahrts-(...) as Germany's longest word. However, yes. 70+ letters are much. But... You know in Germany, there is the possibility to do "Heim- und Hauscomputer" ("home and house computer"), not sure if that works in English since I've never seen it but in German it sure works. You basically want to write "Heimcomputer und Hauscomputer", but since Germans are lazy (thank god xD) you can just delete the first "computer" and act like "since both end with the same word, just read along. xD I hope you got that, it's pretty weird to explain tbh.

Yet that word(s) I thought of were "Rinderkennzeichnungs- und Rindfleischetikettierungsüberwachungsaufgabenübertragungsgesetz", for short "RkReÜAÜG", what does it mean,... uh... things. It's a law and I'm too lazy to look it up. UH the German explanation is even longer RIP languages. Oh and we like to shorten things!

Well people blame the year on their mistakes, like it's a number's fault and it's just weird.
