The spelling of the word "more long l" can be confusing due to the silent "l" at the end. In IPA phonetic transcription, the word is pronounced as /mɔːr ˈlɒŋ əl/. The "l" sound is barely audible and only present to indicate a long vowel sound. This is why the word is spelled as "long" rather than "lone" to depict the length of the vowel sound. The word can be interpreted as "more elongated" or "more extended" depending on its usage.
