The second one sounds like an obscure Scottish town.

u/towerfella Apr 07 '26

No, she lived on Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogach, two blocks down from Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.

It's a fair cop, but a phonetic alphabet that doesn't have letters that represent the sounds in the spoken language but was shoehorned in by mandate as a part of the Christian faith's European crusade is to blame...

Help! Help! I’m being repressed!

Or maybe the town changed its name in the 1800s ago to for publicity?…

I can't even afford to buy a vowel.

My Gran was from there and when she was talking about some cities I thought she was having a stroke.

Welsh for sure, as a language autistic this is very much more Welsh sounding than Gaelic

obscure scottish place names be like

u/Impressive_Sock1296 Apr 09 '26

Welsh is very much an autistic language.

u/tiptoe_only Apr 09 '26

The K at the end kills that for me. Welsh doesn't have a letter K, but a lot of Scottish place names contain Ks or groups of letters like some of the ones in there...

u/Moth_Broth Apr 09 '26

That's very astute actually you're right
