I was gonna say “like Angelus you know the Catholic devotion” before realizing how unhelpful that is so in terms of local English pronounciation I’ll just post a Bad Religion song

Los Angeles and the whole area was settled by Hispanophones but the existing LA culture comes from Anglophone migrants with no prior contact with Spanish orthography or pronunciation, so there are actually a ton of shibboleth place names today
