c is always a /k/ in Gaelic

I live next to a village with a wonderful castle which for many decades was known as Kilgerran - but has now been reinstated as Cilgerran. And I work in the town of Cardigan, which in Welsh is pronounced Aber-ti-vee

(edit-in) I should explain that the Welsh name is Aberteifi = Mouth of the Teifi, which is the tidal estuary that made Cardigan a major port in previous years - bigger than Bristol at one time, and home to several vessels taking immigrants to the USA.
