Struggle For Colorado Meteorologists Nothing Like One In Britain

DENVER (CBS4) - Like most places around our world Colorado has its fair share of locations that can be difficult to pronounce.

Towns like:

- Arriba
- Saguache
- Buena Vista
- Toponas

Often top the list.

But they're nothing compared to a small Welsh village that has two times the number of letters in its name as found in the English alphabet.

A weatherman at a UK television station recently nailed the pronunciation of Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch during a broadcast in a video that's gone viral.

And while nothing in Colorado comes close to Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch, CBS4's Ed Greene and Justin McHeffey give us a lesson on how to say a few of Colorado's most mispronounced places.
