what is the full name of that long place in wales?

Question

ends in gogogoch i think......is it the longest place name?

ok how come i am getting two different answers ?

Answer 1

Its full name is Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwll-llantysiliogogogoch which means The Church of St Mary in the hollow of the white hazel near the rapid whirlpool and the church of St Tysilio near a red cave, although it is usually shortened to Llanfairpwll or Llanfair PG.

Answer 2

Llanfairpwllgwyngy llgogerychwyrndrob wyll-llantysiliogogogoch


This is the name of a town in North Wales. The name translates as "The church of St. Mary in the hollow of white hazel trees near the rapid whirlpool by St. Tysilio's of the red cave" in Welsh, has long claimed the fame of having the longest name in the world. However, there is a hill in New Zealand called

Taumatawhakatangihangako auauotamateapokaiwhenua kitanatahu
This Maori mouthful translates into English as "the place where Tamatea, the man with the big knees, who slid, climbed and swallowed mountains, known as 'landeater,' played his flute to his loved one." I consider this a lean short-story, however, and have serious reservations about giving New Zealand the gold, especially without photographic evidence. But you may count it if you like.

Answer 3

Llanfairpwllgwy ngyllgogerychwyr ndrobwyll-llantysilio gogogoch

Answer 4

Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgoger ychwyrndrobwllllantysilio gogogoch

This is it broken down so is easier to say........

LLAN - FAIR - PWLL - GWYN - GYLL - GO - GER - YCH - WYRN - DROB - WLL - LLAN - TY - SILIO - GO - GO - GOCH


And it means..............


Saint Mary's Church in the hollow of the white hazel near a rapid whirlpool and the Church of St. Tysilio of the red cave.


There you go, I could have explained what the bits are separately but I think you have enough to go on.

Hope this helped xxxxxxxxxxx

Answer 5

Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.

And trust me - there is nothing there aside from a disused railway station and souvenir shop!

The name means "The church of St. Mary in the hollow of white hazel trees near the rapid whirlpool by St. Tysilio's of the red cave".

I spent many a dead Sunday afternoon there smoking underage fags!

Answer 6

It is a Train Station in North Wales.

Mae'n eithaf ddiddorol mewn y gosaf Tren.

Answer 7

When I was in primary school, aged 7, (in london) we had a Welsh schoolteacher, who taught us how to say it.

23 years later, I can still remember, and it is pronounced -
'lan-var
puch-gwin-gich
go-gare-uch-win-drobble
lan-dis-iliog
go-go-goch'


And if you can say that when you have had 10 pints, then you are a better human being than I am.
