[QUOTE="trecile, post: 1197439, member: 52787"] Nobody has mentioned the (incorrect) double L spelling of Compostela. With two Ls it would have a different pronunciation. And let's not forget Bilboa. Most native English speakers mispronounce Estella - the double L makes a Y sound, not an L sound. In Galician A and O are both definite articles and mean [I]the[/I]. The plural forms are as and os. I know that I was initially confused about the route named the Camiño dos Faros, because I thought that it meant that there were two lighthouses, but in this case it's the way [I]of the[/I] lighthouses - [I]dos[/I] means [I]of the[/I], not two as in Spanish. It's not the English words that people have problems with, it's the commonly used Spanish words on the Camino. Two mispronunciations that other pilgrims used that drove me a bit bonkers were the guy that kept called the Meseta the Masada, and a woman who pronounced Rioja as Rioka. [/QUOTE]
