RE: [DX-CHAT] Desecheo.....more
OK I think that one's been done to death. We have some good ones in England: Bicester (Biss-ter) and Wymondham (Win-dum) to name but a couple. However, our friends in the land of leeks and daffodils have some rather better ones. Those who remember the late Denny GW3CDP will no doubt be familiar with the dialect.

One of my favorites is Worcestershire (as in the sauce). The correct pronounciation is, at least here, Wurst-eh-shure. However, at least one of my kids when very young pronounced it Wur-chesta-shyster! I love the way kids tackle long words!
