supercalifragilisticexpialidocious

Roots of the word have been defined3 as follows: super- "above", cali- "beauty", fragilistic- "delicate", expiali- "to atone", and docious- "educable", with the sum of these parts signifying roughly "Atoning for educability through delicate beauty." This explication of its connotations suits the nature of Mary Poppins, who presents herself as both extremely beautiful and also supremely intelligent and capable of great achievements.

I think that backwards (at least the way Julie Andrews says it) it's dociousaliexpiisticfragicalirupus. Phonetically.

I love the way "expialidocious" sounds when said aloud, but the rest of the word isn't impressive enough to end up on my list.

"MARY POPPINS:
Of course, you can say it backwards, which is suoicodiliaipxecitsiligarfilacrepus.

MICHAEL:
She may be tricky, but she’s bloody good!"

Wha...? What's with the hostility? Geez, a person can't even horn in on wise-ass comments anymore....

Well, uselessness, it seems that TWO of us were once on the same wavelength, almost a year ago. Someone ELSE took a while to get on that wavelength, I'd say. *glares at reesetee*

Quite atrocious...

And, er, see precocious for an eerily similar comment by me (which is, may I remind you, the oldest of the three in the bunch). We all must be on the same wavelength.

Ha! See supercalafragalisticexpialladocious for eerily similar wise-ass comment by Yours Truly. ;-)

If you say it loud enough, you'll always sound precocious.

Or is it "supercalifragilistiKexpialidocious"? That spelling at least yields the correct pronunciation.
