---- The Answer Above is Also Correct

But there are a few Welsh words which have a different meaning depending on which area they are used in. (Many languages don't have a single standard form: Welsh, Czech, Catalan, Yoruba - and many others - manage without one).

Tongwynlais is in the Lower Tâf valley, and in the lower Tâf valley ton has the meaning of field (the usual Welsh word for this is tondir - and if you are a farmer, the precise translation is layland).

Also in the Lower Tâf valley Gwynlais is a Man's name.

So Tongwynlais probably means Mr. Gwynlais' field.

(If you look at a map you will see that the next village along is Pantgwynlais :: Mr. Gwynlais' Other Field).
