I've always called fire code enforcers "fire inspector"s, not "fire marshal"s. Unless there's some subtle distinction that I don't understand, maybe that should be accepted as an alternate answer.

At my school there was a joke going around about how you couldn't leave books in the walkways or leave doors open in case the fire marshal came in to inspect us. This eventually escalated to kids yelling "FIRE MARSHAL GET OVER HERE RIGHT NOW!!!" when there were pieces of paper in the hallways or everyone purposely walking slow just to not break any of the fire marshal's rules. I loved it.

I spent ages trying to spell " fire extinguisher" and it wasn't even on there! I'm pretty sure it is also called a "fire extinguisher" even though I know it is also "fire hydrant", which is more commonly used, and also that a fire extinguisher can be something else as well.

I haven't been able to find anywhere that the terms hydrant and extinguishers are interchangeable. Extinguishers are portable devices containing fire suppressing foam, where hydrants are stationary connections to a high pressured water main (hence the 'hydra').

That clue was too general for me. At first I tried to think of a certain gun type - rimfire, centerfire, then I thought of phrases associated with guns, "Fire at will," "Fire when ready," "Hold your fire," etc. I finally gave up.

'Fire in the Hole' is not shouted when throwing a hand grenade (why warn the enemy... they will throw it back) ... it's shouted when blasting is occurring at a quarry or in a planned explosion.(think Mythbusters)

The original name for gun in Chinese was "fire lance." I know firearm is a very common name for guns in English, but Greek fire had me thinking of historical terms, and I almost couldn't think of anything else it might be.

For "it was always burning since the worlds been turning" The way it's worded made me think you were asking for what has been burning, and that would be "The Fire" ... obviously that can't be the answer but maybe it could be reworded so that we know what you are asking for.

I would like a better clue than "urinal for dogs" as British dogs don't urinate on fire hydrants. The fire hydrants here are underground and do not appeal to dogs in this way.
