Meaning: a lung disease caused by breathing in particles of siliceous volcanic dust.

and also...

The Longest name of a place containing 85 letters:

Meaning: A hill in New Zealand. This Maori name was in general use, but is now generally abbreviated to Taumata. The name means: the summit of the hill, where Tamatea, who is known as the land eater, slid down, climbed up and swallowed mountains, played on his nose flute to his loved one.
