if you lived in Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysilio gogogoch?

It would take you five minutes to tell someone where you live!

Wikipedia is so FTW. You might even question if some nub made this all up or something. If it's true then how the hell do you pronounce that whole thing?

:confused:

I quote from Wikipedia:

"The approximate pronunciation in English orthography is given at the station as: Llan-vire-pooll-guin-gill-go-ger-u-queern-drob-ooll-llandus-ilio-gogo-goch, although "chwurn" would be a far better representation of the middle syllable than "queern", and "llantus" would be more accurate than "llandus". The ch is a voiceless uvular fricative [χ] or voiceless velar fricative as in "Bach" ([bax]: see ach-laut) in most varieties of German."

Woah, it's like asking what's the value of pie and getting all of the numbers even though pie goes on and on.
