In the US, there is a lake called Chargoggagoggman-chauggagoggchaubu-nagunamaugg

The name of the 45 letters gave him a local tribe of Indians Nipmak. The lake is located in the central part of Massachusetts and means something like "borderline neutral place Indians and the British fishing knives».

The authorities decided to keep the historic name, which appeared in the days of the colonization of America. But to cope with it, Americans can not - a giant word almost always written with errors, including on road signs and postcards. And how to say it out loud is not out of the question: the locals call the lake just "Webster Lake", from the name of the nearest town.





Residents of the state very proud of their sight. Once, in 1949, the authorities proposed to remove a couple of «G» of the fifteen «G», that are present in the title, to facilitate pronunciation. This idea has sparked such strong protest that the local poet, wrote a poem called "Hands off by G of our great lake!»
