Haven't done this in a while...This one is a mouthful..

hemidemisemiquaver = hem-ih-dem-ih-SEM-ih-kway-ver

noun

: a musical note with the time value of 1/64 of a whole note : sixty-fourth note

Example sentence:
The pianist's fingers became a blur flying over the keys as she played the difficult hemidemisemiquavers of the allegro movement.

Wow, no wonder a note like that would be so hard to play..just look at how long the word is. I remember being in band in middle school and a 1/16th note was hard to play..a 1/64th note...yikes!
