Talk:Comptroller

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

is comptroller a portmanteau?

[edit] Etymology

I'm worried that this statement is both unsourced and does not explain how it simply was 'misspelled'. If there is evidence for this, that's fine, but it's worrisome that it has no backing and seems very oversimplified. Any suggestions? Roche-Kerr 10:55, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

I've added where the info probably canme from. Google comptroller and etymology and you get those two sources on the first page. --Busy Stubber 01:01, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Here (in Canada) we do pronounce the 'p' and it is pronounced just how is it spelt, I've never heard it pronounced controller. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.189.135.87 (talk) 17:57, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
