Word Riddle

Am sure all of us must have played riddles with at sometime are the other. The most common and interesting ones i've enjoyed hearing often include:

1. Name the longest English word?
2. A headless man had a letter to write; It was read by a man who had lost his sight. The dumb repeated it word for word; And deaf was he who listened and heard.
