The longest English words typable using only the top row of letters are, from the largest to smallest: rupturewort, pepperwort, perpetuity, proprietor, and typewriter. The word teetertotter (used in North American English) is longer, although it is usually spelled with a hyphen.

"Rupturewort".  You've been lied to, Redz.
