Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateapokaiwhenuakitanatahu

[…] translates roughly as 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. At 85 letters, it is one of the longest placenames in the world.

Try pronouncing that!
