Hello everybody,
Do you remember the famous adjective: Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious?
It means: Fantastic, very wonderful.
Etymology: A memorable ficticious word from the movie Mary Poppins (Walt Disney Studios, released 1964), and also the title from a song in the movie.
You'll find plenty more on it on the web + pronunciation.
I often use it, and even made an adverb of it: Supercalifragilisticexpialidociously.
"Oh! You were Supercalifragilisticexpialidociously smart today!"
And at the end of my messages/letters:
Supercalifragilisticexpialidociously yours
alep

Hi Sanna,
It is not all that difficult. You must start slowly with hyphens as breathers:
Super-cali-fragilistic-expiali-docious.
It is not a genuine tongue twister, but it jolly well helps to loosen up your tongue!
Supercalifragilisticexpialidociously yours

Hi Alep
Thank you for your advices and comments about this word

Hello.
So, is the French translation of your adverb "supercalifragilisticexpialidocieusement" or is it a false friend??
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocieusement vôtre.

Hi there, over the ocean,
Well, Traviskidd, not a false friend, but surely a strange and dear half brother!
Supercalifragilisticexpialidociously yours
