'''''LL''''' is not easy to transliterate on a web page. I could use IPA (if I knew it) but bearing in mind the target audience I think ''Clan'' is a better approximation than ''Lan''. If you could come up with a better approximation I would be grateful but we're targetting people who may not even be able to pronounce Worcester correctly. Sorry if that sounds offensive but Britsih spellings and pronunciation can be difficult for non-natives. [[User:Dafydd|Dafydd]] 18:21, 29 May 2007 (EDT)

CHlan-did-no would be closer (where CH is similar to the Scottish CH as in LOCH). It is probably worth pointing out in the main article that the exact pronunciation is hard to capture. Maybe start a page on 'LL' with instructions on how to pronounce it. [[User:Chrysogonus|Chrysogonus]] 18:23, 29 May 2007 (EDT)
