OK, even those of us who are FROM here sometimes stumble on a cajun phrase or two, or at the very least, don't know how to spell them (!). Example #1 ATCHAFALAYA - see, I gotcha! Our friends at backpackingdiplomacy.com are betting that even though you know how to pronounce these 'Only in Louisiana' names, you won't know how to properly spell them most of the time. It could actually be a pretty fun Saturday Night Family Game - haha.

Here's some of the hard to spell, even though we can say them words that pop up from time to time:

 

Natchitoches – (pronounced nah-co-dish)

Pointe à la Hache – (pronounced point-a-la-hash)

Tchoupitoulas – (pronounced chop-pit-too-las)

And the 'I never get that one right' Tchefunte – (pronounced chew-funk-te)

Check out the list of other crazy to spell Louisiana words, and add in a few of your own, but be sure to let us know how they are pronounced......just in case!
