And of course Liverpool pronounced live-a contains the Liver Building. Pronounced Live-er
Makes total sense.
The city is pronounced liver, rhymes with river. Source - I live there. It’s confusing, as the building is indeed pronounced differently.
Those things are actually pronounced the same in most British accents.
You do know that “live” is pronounced two different ways, right?
In the german books it is Entenhausen (duckhouse).
Hier wäre Mannheim komisch…
in french it’s either donaldville or canardville (duckville) depending on the media and translation
but while finding this, I learned that french wikipedia has a page for the town (english wikipedia doesn’t) and it has a whole infobox as if it were a real town lmao
The whole town is named after Donald, but he’s just some loser schlub…
It’s gotta be a lot older than him, too. Maybe it was some other Donald.
In Danish it’s called Andeby which translates to: Ducktown.
No Danish town called Mandeby, though 🤷
Shouldn’t it be menneskeby?
We do have a Manderup, and even a Kvinder up.
Do we have ones called Manderip and Manderap, though?
That’s a missed opportunity, we should have
In Italian it’s Paperopoli (Duckopolis)
For Spanish its either Patoburgo (Duckburg) or Patópolis (Duckopolis) in Spain, Patolandia (Duckland) in the Americas
Wouldn’t it be Duckhouses?
Hausen is a no longer used word for nameing settlements. It can describe a multiple house village or a hamlet. Houses is plural. The plural of Haus is Häuser.

As someone who comes from Manchester, I was a little confused at this post for a moment. Love my city.
Love me city. Simple as
Bang on, r kid.
I can’t imagine anything living in Manchester…
/S
Voluntarily, anyway 🤷
Manchester is an amazing city and has an amazing history too; so much has come from it or been created by people in Manchester it’s crazy.
We have awesome public transport, awesome people, and shit weather
Yeah I know, just doing my duty as a Liverpool fan 😉
Funnily enough Liverpool is another great city with a storied history. Nothing on Manchester like.
Someone’s gotta support Liverpool I guess.
Someone’s gotta support Liverpool I guess.
Yeah, it’s nowhere near as fun right now as it usually is, that much is for sure! 😄
I’ve been through much worse, though: my timing was such that I became a Liverpool fan 4 years into the 30 year league title drought!
Yeah 3 losses on the bounce now but I’m sure you’ll come back and kick our ass on Sunday 😂.
I mean yeah, we have to. It’s one thing to slip up against mighty Galatasaray, but if we don’t beat YOUR lot, we’re never going to hear the end of it! 😛

Meanwhile, in Missouri: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humansville,_Missouri
Except Duckburg isn’t mostly inhabited by ducks.
There are 2 rats per capita in Prague (I imagine other cities have a similar situation) and an uncountable population of smaller species. Of course, they’re not equals like in Duckburg.
Guess Dogburg just didn’t sound as good.
Manpool enters chat
Milpool?
