It means antidisestablishmentarianism!
Actually that was known as one of the lost words until 1992.

"it has lost this title to floccinaucinihilipilification in the Guinness Book of Records. It might still be the longest word not invented for the specific purpose of being a long word, however, because the word floccinaucinihilipilification was invented as a joke and is an amalgamation of four different Latin words. Presumably it was made, at least partly, to make fun of long words."
