Longest Words Without Vowels
"Rhythm" and "syzygy" are the two third-longest words without a single vowel.
Rhythm, is well, you should know what. And syzygy is something to do with astronomy, but it is too complicated to say exactly what.
Of course, "rhythms" comes in second, but that was obvious.
Now, the longest word is (drumroll, please)... twyndyllyngs! It is an ancient way of spelling a word that means "twin".

Yeah, but that word is not used currently... the longest one currently used is still "rythms". Mind my spelling, "spellers' block". Good job though.
