Pick a word and get paid a $1 every time someone in the world says it, but is must be at least 12 letters long. What word do you pick?
 
According to the word frequency database for Contemporary English at wordfrequency.info, using their ranking by frequency sorted list, the word with 12 or more letters and given the highest use frequency is: "relationship"

Okay, I cheated....sue me! :tongue:
 
If Jazzy's cheating, so am I!

百貨公司 Chinese for department store (the transliteration had 12 letters). My reasoning being that more people speak Chinese, so a common Chinese word would be more valuable than a common English word.
