That's why I stick with the Welsh version of the place-names when I'm in Wales. Crug Hywel doesn't look quite so misleading, does it? Although it looks remotely like Sindarin (like almost everything Welsh).

Another symptom is when you misread Cotton buds as Cortirion buds. (I thought I'd already posted this weeks ago, but search says I haven't.)
