Here’s a non-paywalled local news site
And in PA it’s pronounced “LANK-ister” and not “LAN-caster”
LOL, the AI actually read it correctly. I grew up in that area, and remember all the face-palming when some new talking head would join local news and butcher the pronunciation, on the air. I wonder if anyone’s ever done a supercut of it…
I grew up about 20 minutes from there, we always pronounced it more like “Lankster”, in casual conversation.
Your comment has sent down a road of rage and anger. We have a place in South Austin called Manchaca. You can always tell non-natives by how they pronounce it. People here call it “Man Shack” and people from abroad or new to the area call it “Maun Cha cua”
You post reminded me of this place, and looking it up shows that for some stupid reason, Austin has decided to change the name of the main road from Manchaca rd to Menchaca rd but the area is still Manchaca. Feels the longer Im earth the stupider the world is.
There’s a town in northeast PA named Throop. Locals pronounce it “troop” just to confuse outsiders.
At a news conference in the wake of the crash, Manheim Township Police Chief Duane Fisher was asked if he thought the result of the crash was a miracle, he said:
“I don’t know if I consider it a miracle, but the fact that we have a plane crash where everybody survives and nobody on the ground is hurt is a wonderful thing.”
Best possible answer to a horseshit fluff question. Any reporter that asks that question should just turn in their notepad and go get a different job.
