>>MagaLuf - who came up with the LL version???

The LL version is the real one. The real name is Magalluf, but Magaluf is so widely extended that every one accepts it.

Drive to Magalluf by the highway and follow the indications: there's no Magaluf. It's the same discussion as Majorca & Mallorca: most British say Majorca, but it's Mallorca. Same for Magal(l)uf. 81.37.133.89 00:04, 28 August 2006

  • This debate sounds like it could rumble on for sometime. So, maybe some photo of an official sign (e.g. blue Autopista sign) could come in useful. The Ajuntament use the single L version (Ajuntament de Calvià) and the bus maps certainly do. There is quite difference between L and LL - LL is pronounced moreorless like J or Y, in Spanish or "lli" in the word million in Catalan. Do you think that maybe this is how it got onto the various websites - one website that was/is listed on external links refers to both Magaluf and Magalluf, and could be why they got the domain name - spot the difference between palmanova-magaluf.com and palmanova-magalluf.com friedfish 07:53, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
