What's the longest word that can be typed with one hand? My answer is AFTERWARDS. Yours?


I'm asking not for the reason that you likely suspect.

On edit: I mean "with one hand in standard QWERTY position"

3. Uh, you can type any word with one hand.
So my answer is, the longest word I can think of is antidisestablishmentarianism.

7. Whatever the longest word is-- I type with 1 finger.
They say that me and the boys are eventually going to type all of the great works of Shakespeare....
