Hi mates Smile No, I haven't made any typing error Razz For such posts I can always rely on my father to find the most unusual articles on the net Very Happy

So Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch, my friends, is the longest place name in Europe with its 51 letters. It is the name of a village in Wales affraid lol!

Too hard to pronounce, right ? Very Happy Well, so ther's a short form of the village's name Llanfairpwllgwyngyll . Still hard to pronounce?? Well, the "ch", "ng" and "ll" letters in the Welsh alphabet are single letters. Let's see what it means at least

* The village is a touristic attraction. Tourists would mainly visist the place to take photographs near the sign at the railway station which gives an approximation of the correct pronunciation for English speakers
