85 letter New Zealand word. It's Maori thats why its so hard to pronounce. Im from New Zealand and most New Zealanders could try and pronounce it but whaka is pronounced fu-ka and whenua is pronounced fen-ew-wa
This is what it translates to
[i]The summit where Tamatea, the man with the big knees, the climber of mountains, the land-swallower who travelled about, played his nose flute to his loved one.[/i]

most epic name. ever.

this the funniest shit ever lmaoo

Good article too by the way.
I'll bet they facepalmed when they noticed. :)

Yay for Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch! :D
It's horrible having to say it in welsh lessons though.

It means [i]"St. Mary's Church in the hollow of white hazel near a rapid whirlpool and the Church of St. Tysilio near the red cave"[/i]. :}

What the hell is wrong with people who come up with these names? Why can't every place be simple like Dogville or Oyster? I don't know. Those just came off of the top of my head...

I was born near the town in Anglesey, the place with 51 letters. My birthplace was called Bottlewydan; not nearly as long. :D

Ok, this should hopefully clear up the pronunciation of the maori word.

If you lived in NZ you'd get how to pronounce it.

That place in Wales is a bitch to pronounce.
I've tried.
And I've failed.
Miserably.
