Nearly all dictionaries prefer ColoRADDo to ColorAHdo, though they list both. I've heard that circa 1850 some early settlers suggested ColoRAYdo, though it did not prevail.

Hey, My Name Is Liam! I Was Born In The United Kingdom, And Moved To Colorado At Age 5! But Back In The UK, We Have Place Names More Hard To Pronounce Than Place Names In Colorado!

Checked off the list, saw Carlos there on 7-30-24. I might go again now that I am fully disabled from claiming the stairs in. There must be elevators for us handicapped!😮

Thank you for this video.

Colorado has a place called "Adobe Badlands."

Do you know anything about the Reynolds Gang? They ran up here in Park County. They supposedly buried gold up here behind the high school.

If you use the term Denverite your not from here, go away. Locals don't refer to themselves as anything. But we refer to everyone else as outsider invader piles of dogshit.

Great video! My father worked closely with Jack Swigert on his 1982 campaign and later lobbied to have that statue placed. One day, I came home from high school to find Jack Swigert standing in my living room talking with my father, Dad said, "Jack, I'd like you to meet my son, Ted." Turning to me he then says, Jack was an Apollo 13 astronaut." We shook hands and Jack said, "Very nice to meet you, Ted." To which I replied, "I know all about you (pause). You know, for an astronaut, you are really down to earth!" I will never forget seeing Mr. Swigert and my dad laugh so hard. To which my father replied. . . and now you know, Ted!" To this day, that is one of my fondest memories, meeting an Apollo 13 astronaut in my living room and hearing his laughter at one of my puns. Best audience ever! Sadly, I also remember my dad getting the phone call that Jack had passed away. That was a tear-filled day. I am grateful to have stumbled upon this video. My dad passed in 2012 and I think of both of them whenever I see that statue at DIA.

I HATE all these butchered Spanish words 🤬 ! If I ever move to Colorado (properly Caw-low-raw-dough), I’d pronounce all these words just like how I would back in Cali!

Please teach people also say Ikea correctly

What trail are you on?

Curse the Dutch and their wacky Anglo-Germanic names!!! They make everything harder. Geef mein em klapp papa, pick one! English or German please, not both. Weird sentences are made even weirder by Dutch. Amsterdam is chill tho, Rotterdam nice too.

There are options to also delegate the filming to others, possibly get pass to escort a bona fide handicapped person, trip to DC to film at the other statue, now you can add that one, you could wait till next time you flew. Where there is a will there is often a way. But not always. Apollo 13 could not have safely landed on the moon and safely made it back to earth after that explosive cryo stir. No way. Lovell know it was defective and should have insisted on replacement-delay not withstanding. Get there itis killed Apollo 1. Haste sometimes makes waste.

PROUD BOYS

As a Front Range Coloradan, I've rarely heard Colorado pronounced that way, and always with the a sounding like the a in "father". But I suspect the æ pronunciation of the a is more common among the rural folk. The modern pronunciation I am familiar with most accurately reflect the original Spanish pronunciation [ko.loˈɾa.ð̞o], but as always, pronunciation is left to differentiation.

Chivington got lucky with finding the supply train at Johnson's Ranch. But even if Sibley had won Glorieta, Ft. Union would've proved to be too much. It was a campaign doomed to fail from the start, and had little to no effect on the rest of the Civil War.

Can’t we all just agree to pronounce it how Bob Dylan pronounces it in Man of Constant Sorrow?

I will never Anglicize obviously non-Anglo names. Right, Casa Grande?

awesome viedo !!!!!

Why did you stop making videos?😢

My mom was born in Salida and raised in Beunie and my dad's whole side of the family, including myself, was born in Lamar. Thank you for this. It was awesome!

7am on a Sunday, that's a nice quiet time to film :)

Most people i know say la hunna for la junta

Lots of dope smoked there

My family are coloridian natives (as in Native American) and I can promise we all say coloRADo. Only people newly moved to the state or in the city of Denver say colorodoh. Some older folks even still say coloRADer.

Even as a Coloradan who lived here his whole life, I still got everything but Arapahoe, Arvada, and Colorado wrong.

This was a nicely done video. I travel frequently and I am often in the Denver Airport and I always make a point of stopping by the statue of Jack Swigert in terminal B. On a similar note, if you’ve never seen the statue of Roger Chaffee in Grand Rapids Michigan it’s worth a look. It’s very similar and extremely well done.

A more confusing one is Buchtel as in Buchtel Blvd.

wine-koop. Denver native here.

Amazing

What you call a rapper's girlfriend? 2:02

The co-pilot/owner is a murderer.

Great video on a great American. As soon as you spelled out the problem I thought of what ended up being your solution. I bet that manager was annoyed. 😁

200 million years???? Lmao. The earth is 6-7000 thousand years old

1:24 everyone I know says ar-va-da. Also most people say Calaradoh. 1:48 whinekoop. We really like all our vowels except for O around here.

When Isak Farts, he could say, to Old Faithful: "You scared the Shed outta me." (because he is made out of Wood.) or #2: "Isak begs your pardon. Have you ever heard a Troll, Fartin'"?

Place him, gently, next to Old Faithful, with a giant Whoopeee Cushion. Every time Old Faithful blows it's Lid, Isak blows it, out, his ass. Wooden Shoe?

Good video

| New Mexico, a state too tough for Teaxans...

HOW CAN YOU FORGET TRAIN?!

big puke emoji at "Byoona Vista" I can appreciate the historicity of it and that most locals still pronounce it that way but... barf. Some things should change. And I say that as a white guy (although I am a transplant)

Is it ok to use the actual Spanish pronunciations for the Spanish named places?

i want to be production manager at a show here

There's no floor to dance. Cant see myself flying down to denver to be contained to a seat.

Jack was a well-respected astronaut and wrote the manual on the CM.

Street names very Denver specific

God just because white people can't pronounce Buena that doesn't mean you should pronounce it wrong and zoon eye for Zuni !?

Would love to see other haunted places there! Much love from Delhi, India 🇮🇳
