Worcester
Bay State city
Worcester is a city in central Massachusetts, the second-largest in the state, and also an English cathedral city.
The name appears in Worcester sauce (or Worcestershire sauce), a fermented condiment.
The spelling notoriously defies pronunciation—it's roughly "WUSS-ter," with the middle syllables swallowed: How do you pronounce Worcester?
