    Glen etive is breath taken I love feeding the deer at certain times of the year when they come down off the hills they hang around where you parked you’re car and there pretty friendly plus the lost valley too haunting and stunning and the lochan surrounded with Douglas fir and mountains ❤

    Thank you for your videos. I visited Glencoe in 1993 and I must say that the area is amazingly beautiful. It was in winter time and I remember that the car we rented was totally frozen, well, not the car but the windshield , and doors. It took us 40 minutes to be able to clean the frozen snow and open de door. Great experience, I remember that some lakes and rivers were also frozen.

      Saying glencoe valley is like saying river Colorado river.
      Glen is Gaelic for the English approximation of valley.
      A wide valley is a strath in Scotland.
      As in Strathspey, of the river Spey, or valley of the river Esk , is the water water; esk being the English approximation of uisge; literally water.
      Uisge beatha means water of life.
      Basterdised as whisky in the English language translation.
      Like eau de vie.
      Modern spell check is an equivalent of the colonising English suppression of the Scots Gaelic place names.

      Also thanks a lot for the correction! To be honest, I thought that Loch maybe means Lake 🙈 May I ask what is the difference between a Loch and a Lake? Is there some kind of definition?

      ​​​@@aventuralina
      Loch means Lake or sea inlet in Scottish and Irish Gaelic language.
      The word Loch is commonly used in Scotland and Ireland.
      In Irish it often appears in the anglicised form "Lough" but is pronounced the same as Loch.
      In Scotland there are about 31,460 freshwater Lochs and Lochans (a Lochan is a small Loch) and there are about 100 sea Lochs.
      Loch Ness has more freshwater than all the Lakes in England and Wales combined.

    Loving your enthusiasm, and your appreciation of our country, and I am impressed with your excellent English.
    Um, but, you are in Scotland where there is also the Gaelic language!
    Don’t worry, most English people have no clue what either.
    Your pronunciation of loch Achtriochan was near perfect.
    But it is not a lake.
    It is a loch.
    And allt is river.
    Ard is a promentary
    Strath is an estuary or wide glen.
    A glen is a glen, not a valley,
    Yup, it’s a new language for most, but it helps to know why Glenfinnan is a glen of ‘ finnan’,
    Loch Alsh, is loch aillse, or foaming water, ( due to its fast tidal flow,) etc.
    Each place name has been written down in english format, and is just a noise; a pretendy approximation of the true meaning in Gaelic.
    So a loch is a loch. The English call it a lake….or failing, call it a lock.
    Sorry to get nippy, and your productions are really good.
    Many coastal places are Norse words too. Hey, vikings already!
    Enjoy, enjoy.
    Good luck and good travels.

To be honest, I thought that Glen is the Gaelic word for valley and Loch the Gaelic word for lake 🙈 So I really appreciate your correction here as I’d love to return to Scotland and will teach my audience better in the future ☺️
      By the way, I have about 3 outtakes of me pronouncing Loch Achtriochtan. That’s a really tough one 😅
