Behind the name of a street, a road, a square, an avenue is a story. It may be a story of a bird, a tree, a plant, a planet, a place, a person, a date from history, a wind of the Mediterranean. Whichever story it is, the name is a springboard to knowledge, so long as the questions of the curious are asked. What does that mean? What does that refer to? Who was that person? Much of the knowledge of Majorca is stored by these names, so here’s an idea: an app that links information and explanations to these names. A major, a massive task, but repositories of knowledge are massive: they are encyclopaedic.
