Weatherman Somehow Flawlessly Pronounces This Incredibly Unusual Name

by Eitan Levine

I've been staring at the name of this village for about two minutes now and I still have no idea how to pronounce a third of it.

Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch is complicated to say, not just because it's the longest name for a place in UK and Europe, but also because parts of the name are flat-out absurd.

Here is an OFFICIAL ranking of the three most ridiculous parts of Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch:

1. pwllgwyngy -- WHAT?! 2. gwyngyll -- NO. 3. bwllll -- FOUR Ls IN A ROW?!

You're going to feel a little worse about yourself after you watch this weatherman say Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch like it isn't a huge deal.

Shake it off, you have other things you are great at.

Anyway, if you're like, "That was OK, but I wish there was a video of an Academy Award-nominated actress saying the name," here is a video I found of Naomi Watts doing exactly that.
