Can you refill the butane cartridge of the curling iron? When they first came out, 30 years ago, they were designed to simply refill with butane for cigarette lighters. I did it numerous times until the curling iron mechnism broke- â¦It was in the instructions. Then they re-designed so you had to use their refills.
A Suitable Boy by Vikram Seth has 1,349 pages and approximately 3,374,000 characters. It's claimed to be the longest single volume novel ever published in English. Before Seth's novel, others turned to Samuel Richardson's Clarissa as the longest novel with over a million words (and about 5,500,000 characters).
What's the longest word ever to appear in literature? And what qualifies as a 'word'? The longest word in the English language (leaving literature to one side for a moment) is a staggering 189,819 letters long. Or rather, it is and it isn't. The chemical formula for the protein otherwise known as titin runs to 189,819 letters, but whether this constitutes a 'word' is a moot point.
