Want to sound cleverer than Jacob Rees-Mogg? Here are five long words to drop into conversation

The record for the longest word spoken in parliament has been broken with pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis - but there are plenty of alternatives

Is this the first sign of Moggmentum draining away? We can but hope. Jacob Rees-Mogg, the MP for North East Somerset and the 18th century, has been knocked off his perch as utterer of parliament's longest word. Michael Bryan's use of "pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis" in a select committee meeting means floccinaucinihilipilification's reign - it has been a mere five years since Rees-Mogg said it during a Commons debate - is over. Whether Bryan will follow through on this promising start by naming his future children after numbers is yet to be seen. He's only 16, which means there's plenty of time for a course correction if the position of National Fogey loses its appeal. In the meantime, here are five words you can slip into conversation if you want to put in a bid yourself.
