prettygoodwordlongueur (lawng-GUR) - n., a long, tedious passage in a dramatic or literary work.
Or musical work -- any kind of art with duration. Can also be applied to things outside of art, such as the longueurs of retired life. Borrowed in 1791 from French, where it means literally length. As in, those places where you notice how long it is.
