This is not a complete sentence but the first element of a 171-letter compound noun (λοπαδοτεμαχοσελαχογαλεοκρανιομελιτοκαταβλητοσιμειοσιχοπτοφαλλοκρεπτοπεριστεραλεκτρυονοπτοκεφαλλιοκιγκλοπελειολαγωοσιραιοφαλληγοσσαιβιβλιοφαρμακοκηληκισσελοφιλλοκωστοκεφαλοκεραυνόπτομο-), which Aristophanes constructs in Ecclesiazusae (1167) to satirize the pretentious verbosity of contemporary politicians and the absurdity of the Athenian political lexicon. The word is a syntactic marvel, a 'spondee' of the lexicon, composed of seventeen distinct roots (e.g., λοπάδιον 'dining tray', τεμαχίο 'slice', σέλαχος 'shark', γαλεός 'mackerel', etc.) to describe an impossibly elaborate dish, serving as a parody of the 'long-winded' speeches of the assembly and the tendency of politicians to pile up qualifications and details to obscure meaning.
