Another One Bites The List




So, I've written a couple of lists about Washington State, and I figure, why stop now. So........

Towns/Cities in Washington State Whose Names You Are Probably Mispronouncing


  1. Sequim

  2. Wapato

  3. Buena

  4. Naches

  5. Cle Elum

  6. Cowiche

  7. Issaquah

  8. Tukwila

  9. Ephrata (hint: it's NOT U-phrata!!!)

  10. Long Beach. It's actually Lung Bay-atch.




And now, the award for most ironic place name in Washington State goes to.....




RITZVILLE!




Wait, I know it's around here somewhere!








Oh, there it is!
