He looks so proud of himself when he says it right.

I have lived in Wales for 2 years now and am still amazed this language exists at all.

Ever tried Polish? Trust me, it may seem not that hard when you see it written somewhere but try to say it or try to learn all the grammar, i dare you

Why would anyone name a place something that long.
User avatar #109 to #1 - languagexplain (09/10/2015) [-]
for ***** and giggle pretty much. Place is called Llanfair for all intents and purposes other than tourism.
#142 to #109 - anon (09/10/2015) [-]
There is an npc called Magerold of Lanfair in Dark Souls 2 and he really looks like Domhnall of Zena in Dark Souls whose first response is "aye, siwmae". They are both a killogramme Welsh then.

that's the welsh language for you and, according to wikipedia, it means; Parish of St. Mary in Hollow of the White Hazel near the rapid whirlpool and the parish of St. Tysilio with a red cave.

Well atleast it is a sensible name even though it is long.

some swedish places with retarded names.

Sexträsk (Sex swamp)
Rövhålet (asshole)
Leverhögen (liver pile)
Varberg (pus mountain)
Djuparöven (the deep ass)
KÃ¥taselet (the horny harness)

Remind me to "Sex Swamp" on my list of places to go someday.

"The deep ass"
#78 to #29 - comradewinter ONLINE (09/10/2015) [-]
Norway has them too.

Helvete (Hell)
Møkkalasset (The **** pile)
Sædingklubben (~The sperm club)
Skrukkefylla (The wrinkled drunkedness)
Faenshølet (The ******* hole)
Ræva (The ass)
Drittsekktjønn (Douchebag water)
Spermbanken (The sperm bank)
Runken (The wank)
Svenskehølet (The Swedish hole)

And those are just a few.

My favourite one isn't a dirty one but it is just funny, vänd igen (Turn back), awfully welcoming.
User avatar #60 to #29 - nattsvermer (09/10/2015) [-]
We've got a Myggfitta (The Mosquito Cunt) and a Rævaberget (The Ass Cliff) over here in Norway. Seems to be a Scandinavian thing.

That sounds like a fetish playlist on pornhub.

It was a publicity stunt.

Why the **** else would somebody not Welsh go there?

#86 to #8 - anon (09/10/2015) [-]
I''m sorry but wikipedia is wrong, The town was founded by the Germans and the name llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch in German translates to a whales vagina.

Sorce: i'm Ron Burgundy?

Well it's descriptive at least.

**anonymous used "*roll picture*"**
**anonymous rolled image**
Just do the sensible thing abbreviate the name

Our capital used to be:
Krungthepmahanakhon Amonrattanakosin Mahintharayutthaya Mahadilokphop Noppharatratchathaniburirom Udomratchaniwetmahasathan Amonphimanawatansathit Sakkathattiyawitsanukamprasit

Now it is just:
Krungthep. (with an abbreviation sign) or Krungthepmahanakhon (officially)

sily thing is...most maoris dont even speak their native language so even they would have problems with that
User avatar #120 to #118 - brayburn (09/10/2015) [-]
Not many, nah. Pretty much a dead language.

One of my mates speaks it fluently, though.
His whole family does. They'll all speak it to each other every now and then.
User avatar #122 to #120 - burytia (09/10/2015) [-]
well its a dead language....and sadly the NZ governments trying to force it down peoples throats by including it in school systems

but why......

welsh people dont speak gaelic, italians dont speak latin,....why keep maori alive when it serves no purpose, especially why force kids of other races to learn a dead tribal language
User avatar #123 to #122 - brayburn (09/10/2015) [-]
They have as long as I remember.
Christ even back in primary school when I was a little ankle biter.

******* forgotten most of it now though... So that was school time well spent.
User avatar #124 to #123 - burytia (09/10/2015) [-]
well all i remember was them making a vague attempt at teaching maori intermediate school...but nothing either side in primary or high school....

now apparently theyre starting it down in primary, and why really
whats it going to achieve other that basically cultural necromancy keeping something dead dragged along
and for the kids who actually bother using it outside of school...what will it achieve....letting them have a language only the few speakers understand so they can be dicks around the majority who are non speakers?
User avatar #125 to #124 - brayburn (09/10/2015) [-]
All I can see it being used for is a performer or tour guide in Rotorua
User avatar #127 to #125 - burytia (09/10/2015) [-]
yeah thats pretty much all it would really be....just a novelty

the only ones who'd seriously use it would be the maori nationalists who use it as a **** you to white people, or super libtards who bought into the racial guilt theme

**** , this song just keeps going like this, doesn't it?
User avatar #75 to #18 - navadae (09/10/2015) [-]
how do you **** it up with "ding dang" when the guy you`re quoting has the right lyrics with "ting tang"
#116 to #75 - trevanman (09/10/2015) [-]
because it sounded like "ding dang" in my head
and by the time I realized the guy above me had written "ting tang", I realized I was too lazy to change it
User avatar #70 to #2 - budbrown (09/10/2015) [-]
at 85 letters, that is the longest word for a place. it translates to "The summit where Tamatea, the man with the big knees, the slider, climber of mountains, the land-swallower who travelled about, played his nose flute to his loved one"

That pronunciation was impressive... I'm Welsh and i can barely say it, **** I live near there.

That's pretty funny but oddly enough my girlfriend can say it perfectly.
User avatar #121 to #33 - jackoacko (09/10/2015) [-]
He is Welsh. His name is Liam Dutton and was born and educated in Cardiff.

The best comment I saw when this was posted on r UK was people asking how he did it and somebody described him as a "stealth Welshman".
User avatar #131 to #121 - backupclover ONLINE (09/10/2015) [-]
"Stealth Welshman" Ha, nice.

I don't come from cardiff though, that's the funny part, I'm all the way up on the northern side right before Angelsey.
User avatar #139 to #131 - jackoacko (09/10/2015) [-]
I'm curious; to what extent is it Welsh speaking there? I'm almost exactly in the middle of Wales and hardly anyone speaks Welsh here as a second language, let alone as their first.
User avatar #151 to #139 - Dincorta ONLINE (09/10/2015) [-]
And in the south, you hardly ever hear it. It's on road signs, and you know people who speak it, but never hear them do so. The north and south are very different places.
User avatar #141 to #139 - backupclover ONLINE (09/10/2015) [-]
Right in the north, you hear pretty much Welsh everywhere except for like, Bangor maybe, I'm talking about the north west of course, Wrexham and more eastwards is a lost cause.
#34 - rabbithabbit (09/09/2015) [-]
The lead up to it I was just thinking, "No ******* way he is going to say that".

And yet again this world never ceases to amaze me.

God I hate welsh. They force feed us this **** because it's a 'dying language' when it's a dying language because no one wants to learn it on account of it's entire word base being the various phonetics of an average coughing fit.
User avatar #126 to #48 - aangbingo (09/10/2015) [-]
I'm guessing you're from Southern Wales?
I speak Welsh fluently, but I'd much rather speak English in conversation.
Welsh is a lot easier in writing though.
User avatar #152 to #48 - Dincorta ONLINE (09/10/2015) [-]
Welsh is a lovely language and our history is great. And it's not a dying language, it's actually growing.

not even welsh people can say this properly. source: i'm welsh and people are like wtf when i say it. that just makes me sound like i'm bragging about being able to speak sheepshagger

if you want to learn then here's a cheesy song that'll help you LEARN IN 4 MINUTES. Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch

God damnit I remember that guy in the back, I think from GoT, but I can't remember who he plays. What's the actors name?

Burn Gorman, he's the guy in the Night's Watch who kills commander Mormont
