    Wow, my first attempt using akaqa.com. Responsive. I had always used Marseilles! Until I was asked to mediate!!
    1) Google translate seemed to indicate that "s" is English spelling and "no s" is French spelling.
    2) This is from Wikitravel: Quote "Talk:Marseille
    So, I was going to say that this is the wrong title, and that it's spelled Marseilles, but then I did a quick dictionary lookup and found Marseille listed as a synonym."

    Marseille
