Spelling Issue

Ok, this is stupid but it has been buggin me lately...What do you think is the true way to spell roller coaster... Is it roller coaster (with a space) or rollercoaster (all as one word)?

I'm going with Roller Coaster on this one. Dictionary.com seems to agree. I've seen it both ways(RollerCoaster Tycoon...no space), but I think the 'correct' spelling is without a space.

Yeah, I think it is "roller coaster" because I trust in RCDB and according to it, it is roller coaster.

I would definitely go with roller coaster. Rollercoaster doesn't look like correct grammar, in English and spelling books I've even seen "roller coaster".

[SFGAmfreak4life]

Its "roller coaster". Ive seen it a few times spelled rollercoaster. I have roller coaster books movies that spell it "rollercoaster". Many websites spell it "rollercoaster" as well. For an example of a site that spells it "roller coaster" go to http://www.rcdb.com

Ok, glad you guys agree... That's how I've always spelled it (roller coaster).

Yes the roller coaster is proper but I find myself spelling it numerous times as one word just as a quick typing mistake.
