floccinaucinihilipilification (n.)

the estimation of something as valueless (encountered mainly as an example of one of the longest words in the English language)

Here’s one that is also a bit of a Mobius strip: floccinaucinihilipilification is a rarely-used word that means "something of little or no value," and it is usually used in reference to itself!

From the 1700s, the word contains four Latin words that all mean “of little value” or “for nothing”: flocci, nauci, nihili, pili. (source)
