    		Shakalshas, but please don't ask me what does it mean.

    SHAKALSHAS (10 letters) is the longest word which can be typed using only the middle row of letters on the keyboard. Others include HAGGADAHS, FLAGFALLS, HADASSAHS, GALAGALA, GALAHADS, HASKALAH, and ALFALFAS.

    By the way Peasy, I stole that from http://www.fun-with-words.com/word_records.html#Typewriter_Words, once mentioned by you sometime on this site.

    		It's the plural of Shakalsha, who are a people who emigrated from Phrygia and who colonized Sicily.

    My grammar stinks.
