bunagungamaugg.
Used in a sentence: "You might know that I'm on a quest to dip my feet into all of the Great Lakes (only Huron remains), and now, so close to the end, I want to add a bonus lake on to the list -- the one known as ... Chargoggagoggmanchauggagogg-
chaubunagungamaugg."
Allegedly Indian for "you fish on your side and I'll fish on my side and neither of us will fish in the middle", it just made my travel wish list.
Because, let's face it -- everybody needs a good party story. And saying that you dipped your toes into lake Chargoggagoggmanchauggagogg-chaubunagungamaugg HAS to qualify. Anyone know how far it is to Webster, Mass?
