The word "Elisson" is spelled with two L's, despite the common belief that it should have only one. In IPA phonetic transcription, the word is pronounced as [ɛliːsən], with the initial "e" being pronounced as the long "e" sound, the "i" as the long "i" sound, and the final "on" as the schwa sound. The double L is necessary to indicate the correct pronunciation of the middle "s" sound, which can be easily mispronounced as a "z" sound if only one L is used.
