Hall of Fame
A hall of fame is a real, but more often also a fictitious memorial room in which the most important representatives of the respective area are honored. Since the phenomenon became particularly popular in the Anglo-American language area, most of them are appropriately named as the hall of fame in English. A wall honoring such personalities is referred to as a wall of fame , a footpath as a walk of fame , a directory as a roll of honor .
