How do you spell tolled?

That is the correct spelling of the form "tolled" (as a bell ringing). However, the homophone (sound alike word) is "told" (past tense of to tell).


Is it all told or all tolled?

Sound-alike words can be very confusing. As you know, "told" is the past tense of "tell." "Tolled" is the past tense of "toll", which is the sound a bell makes when a clapper strikes its inner surface. So, in your question, you want the phrase "all told." Here are example sentences of the differences between "all told" and "all tolled". 1. All told, there were 20 injured students. 2. Sixty persons, all told, objected to the plan. "All told" is a shortened version of "all be told", which basically means, "If all the facts be told, this is what happened." 1. Church bells across the country all tolled at the hour when the plane had crashed ten years earlier. 2. A chorus of bells all tolled under the expert hands of the bell ringers at the Christmas Eve service. "All tolled" means "all of the bells from ___ tolled" or "all of the bells tolled". "All told" is a phrase instructors discourage using in academic writing. It is generally an awkward and unsophisticated phrase. It can be omitted without changing the meaning of the sentence. 1. All told, one hundred and forty persons died over Labor Day weekend in New York City. 2. One hundred and forty persons died over Labor Day weekend in New York City.
