Ever wanted to know how to pronounce that place in Wales?
Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch is a town and train station in Anglesy, Wales and is pronounced like: Clan vire pulth gwinn gith gor gerrick win drob uth clan tay see lee oh go go gogch, it is quite easy to say once you have learnt it (then again, I do have Welsh in my blood), see if u can say it remember its not said how it looks, it's said: Clan vire pulth gwinn gith gor gerrick win drob uth clan tay see lee oh go go gogch, go on have a go!!

For people who visit Wales but are in a hurry: there exists an "accepted abbreviation" of your place name: it is "Llanfair PG".
I've found this so disappointingly short form in a pronouncing dictionary (P. Roach and J. Hartmann, Cambridge university press).
But, indeed, the full name sounds much better!
