Two American tourists are driving through Wales. They notice a sign
for a place called Betws-y-Coed and decide to head there for something
to eat. As they make their way there they debate the pronunciation of
the town's name.
They stop for lunch and as they stand at the counter, one tourist asks
the girl, "Before we order, could you please settle an argument for
us?"
The girl nods.
"Would you please pronounce where we are............ very slowly?"
The girl leans over the counter and says, "Burrrrrr-gerrrrrrrrr
Kinnnnnnnnngggggg."

A lot of people outside of Wales don't speak Welsh. It being a language not spoken in any other country. What is wrong with an American asking how to pronounce the name of the place. It shows that they don't wish to mispronounce the name & possibly insult the people of Wales. It shows an interest in the people & their country. Yes, I just love Americans; I'm one of them & would have done the same thing. Guess its shame on me, again!
