专有名词
  1. A village in Anglesey, Wales, United Kingdom, known for having the longest place name in Europe, and the longest English-language (albeit borrowed from Welsh) settlement name in the world.
    — Some time ago, during a tour in Wales, I was much struck by the name of a little village in Anglesea. The village is insignificant enough, but it is surely as well described as the most ambitious place could desire. The name runs: "Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch."

词源

Borrowed from Welsh Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch. This longer form of the name was invented for promotional purposes in the 1860s.
