Someone above noted: The letters of the alphabet qualify as nouns and, therefore, words in themselves.

It might take me a little while to do all of them. The 20-letter 8-syllable words are "institutionalization" and "counterrevolutionary."

Initialisms not acronyms, btw. Not to be a pedant!

33 one letter words. 33, one, letter, words. Am I having a stroke?

Hmmm 9 letters 1 syllable. Strengths?

They are the abbreviation Rep, and the acronyms BMW, DFW. If I'm not mistaken, DFW stands for Dallas Fort-Worth. The dataset, though, lists the pronunciation as "dee-eff-dub-eh-you."

How are their 36 one letter words in English?

Oh, I misread that. I guess it would be an acronym that includes W then.

it's not about the data collection or privacy, it's about depression, anxiety and suicide behavior in young people driven by the business model of modern social media

That's 5 letters 3 syllables, comment says 3 letters 5 syllables.

Can you provide a list of the outliers with only 1-2 occurrences? Eg: word for 20 Letters, 8 syllables.

Would be super interesting.

It’s a noun

That's the pronunciation of W

According to this there is just one!

That's not a word though.

Duh-bull-yoo

How can a 1 letter word be 3 syllables???

There is no way All of the rivers in England belong to the same hydrological basins. The Thames, east coast is very distinct to the Severn, west coast.

Well yes, but if it did that it would be creating very small river basins all along various coastal areas. All of the US coasts have this same issue, and much of the African coasts and SouthEast Asia, etc. There is a grouping compromise being done somewhere to prevent having so many small basins. A map of this type of just one country could split them up, but whole world would be just too busy.

Three letters, five syllables? What words are those?

How many things do you think you enjoyed as a child/teenager that at least some adults of the time said that about?

I've heard people suggest making the internet illegal for minors. I've heard old people suggest making all video games illegal. Don't be part of that.

Don't ban TikTok specifically. Pass reforms that require better privacy and data collection behavior from all social media companies, Chinese or American.
