Ipswich is the name of a city chosen as a tongue-twister to punish people with lack of motor coordination and speech skills. Grammar-school pupils can be brought to tears by being stood in front of the class and asked to pronounce it.
There are several Ipswiches in the world:
- Ipswich, Suffolk is the county town of Suffolk, which is in Mediocre Britain.
- Ipswich, Queensland is the Australian version, the birthplace of that country's Bogan culture.
- New Ipswich, New Hampshire is the Yankee version, though it is shown on the official state map as New Ispwich. It has a population of 5,099, none of them Uncyclopedians.
- In mainframe computing, the nearest thing is the IPL (initial program load) switch.
- This is a disambiguation page — words should always mean more than one thing, and we're working hard to ensure that each word you look up refers to at least two completely unrelated articles. If an article link referred you here, you should make it to point directly to the article where you think the confused link-maker thought it would point, or go nuts and pick one at random. Just make sure it doesn't point here.
