Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateaturipukakapikimaungahoronukupokaiwhenuakitanatahu. Yes - it is officially the longest place name in the world. It is Māori for "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". It's location is in North Island, New Zealand. Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateapokaiwhenuakitanatahu is it's short form. By the way, if you can pronounce Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateaturipukakapikimaungahoronukupokaiwhenuakitanatahu, then you really need to get a life. I can pronounce and spell Pneumonoultramicroscopicsiliovolcanoconiosis, but Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateaturipukakapikimaungahoronukupokaiwhenuakitanatahu is just too long.
