Everywhere in the world chilli is spelt w/two "l"s except for North
America north of the Rio Grande River. And even then, in a tiny, rational
political sub-division of USA, chilli is spelled correctly as defined
by an act of the Illinois Legislature.

In Mesoamerican, the native language of the Aztecs was Nahuatl. This has
been spoken since at least 7th century AD. This was not known to be a
written language. When Spaniards romanized (latinised) the word for
these newly discovered spicy fruits, the word they used was chilli.

In 1993, Governor Jim Edgar Senate Joint Resolution No. 89. This 
resolution, which was passed unanimously by both houses of the 
Legislature, proclaimed Illinois as the “Chilli Capital of the 
Civilized World” and recognized that the spelling is C-H-I-L-L-I.
