You are all wrong. It is not Los Enjelees. It is Los Anheles. Or to be more precise it will be soon. Again.

My mother was born and raised in Los Angeles and has a definite Angelino accent. She has always pronounced it Los An-gal-less. Even though I grew up there (very close to the Hunnington Library in fact), I never got the accent (I've been told I sound like a Midwesterner). I pronounce it Los En-gel-less. My mother has corrected my pronunciation my entire life, but she is the only person I've ever encountered who pronounces it the way she does.
