The following seem also to contain the Germ. zwei, Eng. two, and to have something of a similar meaning to the foregoing.

1.Germany.The Zwitt(awa) or Zwitt(au) in Moravia.
2.With the ending el.
Germany.The Zwettel in Austria.

I include also here the Scheldt or Schelde, (the Scaldis of Cæsar), which I think is to be explained by the Old Norse skildr, Dan. skilt, separated, in allusion to the two mouths by which it enters the North Sea. And to the same origin may be also placed the Schilt(ach) of Baden, which falls into the Kinzig.

From the Gael. caraid, duplex, may probably be the two Carts in the County of Renfrew, the united stream of which enters the Firth of Clyde near Glasgow.
