Longest Vowel-free Word

The longest word without a vowel is 'twyndyllyng' in singular or 'twyndyllyngs' in plural, which means twin or twins, respectively.

Though we use such words frequently while speaking, but don't use them much while writing. English is controlled in a way that we find it difficult for a vowel-free word all of a sudden. Vowel-free words are useful when playing games like Scrabble, Hangman, or Boggle. Having such words in mind mostly at a game of Scrabble or Hangman proves really helpful.

For instance, in Scrabble, if you possess no tile with a vowel, you can quickly memorize this list and think of any words that can be framed using your tile combinations. Similarly, in hangman, a word is easily guessed with the presence of vowels in it.

To make Hangman more tough, you could introduce a vowel-free word and stand a good chance to win the round as such words are very tough to guess. Here's an alphabetical list of words in English, which do not contain a vowel. Take a look.
