As much as the Scots like visitors, they like to confuse tourists and make them work hard for their pleasure. The simplest way to do it is to call everything by another name - almost always it is the Scottish Gaelic term for the word - but it does take time to sink in. On the contrary, it did give me a sense of excitement as I'd end up thinking that I'm going to see something very special!
Some of the terms that I'll be commonly using in future posts are as follows:
Loch - Lake
Glen - Valley
Strath - A wider valley
Ben - Mountain
Doune - Castle
Blair - I'm not quite sure but as far as I remember, it refers to an area
Trossach - Roughly translated as the bristled country
These are the ones that'll come up the most. If I think of any more, I'll add them here and also explain them wherever I mention them.
The first travelogue coming up in a few hours!
