This HAS to be the weirdest word ever.

gymkhana

Seriously!? Where the heck did that word come from? I've heard it pronounced a million different ways, how do YOU pronouncing it and where do YOU think it came from?

if you don't know, make something up- it'll be funny. Maybe we'll see who can think of the most believable.
