[LawrenceCharlieMack]

Haha, Rebbecca, You are so funny... !

[jopzmail]

This is no true. The longest place name is the full name of Bangkok (Thais people call "Krung Thep"). Its full name is "Krung Thep Mahanakhon Amon Rattanakosin Mahinthara Yuthaya Mahadilok Phop Noppharat Ratchathani Burirom Udomratchaniwet Mahasathan Amon Phiman Awatan Sathit Sakkathattiya Witsanukam Prasit.

[1234JAMMYJOE1234]

well guess what im thai and scottish

[EstateRavePosse]

Guess what, I'm Afghani, and moved to England when I was 7.

[BedBugAcres]

That's Thai, not Chinese. It's the official name of Bangkok, currently famous for being where David Carradine just died under peculiar circumstances. Anyway, in both the Welsh and Thai cases, what we really have are names that are compound expressions that in fact include multiple long descriptive phrases. They may be orthographically single words, but aren't really simple place names, but multiword constructions.

[1234JAMMYJOE1234]

don't you mean thailand?

[krittbkk]

The Guiness Book of Records says Bangkok has the longest place name in the world, with about 190 letters, depending on the transliteration:

Krung Thep Mahanakhon Amon Rattanakosin Mahinthara Ayuthaya Mahadilok Phop Noppharat Ratchathani Burirom Udomratchaniwet Mahasathan Amon Piman Awatan Sathit Sakkathattiya Witsanukam Prasit

[sorenpg]

It is not the longest place name in the world.. It is "Krung Thep" another name for Bangkok.. Search for "Krung Thep full name" on google. it is 167 letters..

[toddh3284]

haha these chicks are funny.

Thanks girls!!

[toolhslew]

that was close

[nickvids4u]

actually she prounced it perfectly

[Hykast]

For a drunk chick she said it pretty well.

[emperessemma]

I didnt know there was commas in it...

And I'm a welsh lil chick..

Hmmm...

Hehe..

..x..

[werav8]

what eva in new zealand

[Wrexham17]

it is in wales its called Llanfair,Pwllgwyngyll,Gogeryll­,Llyndrobwyn,Llantiseilio,GoGo­Goch

[Thinthondiel]

That's slightly misspelt. I don't know about the commas and stuff do separate the words (because I don't speak welsh), but without the commas it's Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwy­rndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch. But it's not the longest place name in the world, that's in New Zealand and it's called "Taumata whakatangi hangakoauau o tamatea turi pukakapiki maunga horo nuku pokai whenua kitanatahu".

[ollie3003]

the best part of the one in new zealnd is the meaning - "The summit where Tamatea (the man with the big knees, the climber of mountains, the land-swallower who travelled about) played his nose flute to his loved one"

[nc2888ksw]

Actually the longest place name in the world is the capital of Thailand English speakers know it as Bangkok but it is actually กรุงเทพมหานคร อมรรัตนโกสินทร์ มหินทรายุธยามหาดิลก ภพนพรัตน์ ราชธานีบุรีรมย์ อุดมราชนิเวศน์ มหาสถาน อมรพิมาน อวตารสถิต สักกะทัตติยะ วิษณุกรรมประสิทธิ์

[Asianboysiam]

yea i'm pretty sure bangkok has the longest name also..english : Krung Thep Mahanakhon Amon Rattanakosin Mahinthara Ayuthaya Mahadilok Phop Noppharat Ratchathani Burirom Udomratchaniwet Mahasathan Amon Piman Awatan Sathit Sakkathattiya Witsanukam Prasit
