+188 If anyone ever tries to tell you that "sorry" is one of the hardest words to say, tell them to pick up a bottle of diet coke and try to pronounce phenylalanine, amirite?

This post has a good concept, but I would've chosen a more complicated word. "Phenylalanine" isn't very hard to pronounce at all. It's pronounced almost exactly how it's spelled.

I don't know, I'm having some difficulty.... It's like when Nemo tries to pronounce anemone.

I tried to say it out loud, and that's exactly what I thought of.

Haha yeah I agree but it was the first awkward word that came to mind so I figured..meh... That'll do!

How about the element Molybdenum? Where in **any** language do you see the letters "LYBD" consecutively? (I know it's not that hard to pronounce, I just wanted to make that point :))

Point taken! And agreed, the whole word just looks like, "where the fuck do I even start speaking!"
