The long word "antidisestablishmentarianism" has 17 consonants and 11 vowels. The Guinness Book of World Records "longest English word" is 45 letters long and has 25 consonants and 20 vowels: Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilico-volcanoconiosis (a hyphen has been added so that it will display here) But the ratio between consonants and vowels is greatest in words such as "prompt" (5 to 1), "strengths" (8 to 1) and "strengthlessness" (13 to 3).
