Talk:Milan, Washington

Washington, Milan
Interestingly enough there is also a neighbourhood in the Italian city of Milan called "Washington", making it Washington, Milan as opposed to Milan, Washington. Not sure if there's any direct link between these too, though I sincerely hope there is one.

The article previously began with the unsourced

which should only be included once it is sourced to a. (No, your aunt doesn't really count.) There are several American towns and villages mispronounced that way but a every online guide to 'weirdly pronounced' Washington settlements pointedly doesn't mention the local Milan and b half the time Wikipedia thought the pronunciation was my-lun but once an actual source or video is checked it turns out they were just mishearing/mistranscribing my-lynn, based on the nasalization/drawling of the original short A sound. — Llywelyn II   09:55, 23 February 2024 (UTC)
