Yes, we have some funny pronunciations but that is what makes up special. Go Massachusetts!

There are other town names that are tongue twisters but we keep them secret so we can ID tourists.

Does make watching some vids hard.

If the tourist pronounce the town right, can they use the tunnel under the Cape Cod Canal?

When I first moved to the area many moons ago, I lived in Billerica. I entertained many locals by telling people where I lived.

Massholes on whole pronounce it bill-ricca, but the townies themselves (at least used to) say "brikka".

The video was great, although it missed the issue with pronouncing "ham", e.g. Waltham vs Wareham. Maybe that can be Part 2.

If I ever get to England, I'll be all set.

Someone should put a Mass map on the Web where people can click on towns and here the correct pronunciation. And then there's all the "unofficial" villages - Newton's got 13 IIRC, one with it's own language. Billerica has Pinehurst. Etc.
