Author Topic: Marshal? Marshall? Marshaller? (Read 2496 times)

Hello,

I'm also no native speaker, but isn't there a typo at the marshallers west?

Shouldn't it be "Marshall"? (Two "L")

And most real world pictures show the word "Marshaller", not only "Marshall".

But certainly no showstopper

thanks

Marshal has only one "L". Marshall with 2 Ls is a person's name. Marshaller does indeed have two Ls because of pronunciation. Also: marshalling.

I knew a fellow named Marshal. He's dead now.
