Squirrel. One syllable or two?

Obviously it's two, but I know lots of people will say it's one and that it's pronounced 'skwirl', but those people are stupid. So how do you say it?





Yes yahoo answers is so boring tonight this is the best I can come up with.Squirrel. One syllable or two?
2Squirrel. One syllable or two?
I say it with two. Like people always say I pronounce 'caramel' wrong when I say it with 3 syllables.
That depends on where you live; dialect. I am originally from STL and I called them squir-rels, 2 syllables. Now I'm down south and they say skwirls. Well, i'm nauralized, i used to say yuse, now it's yall..
Yeah, it has two syllables, but I pronounce it with one. I also pronounce ';iron'; with one syllable. It's a dialect thing. There's nothing wrong with it, if you know it's technically incorrect.
How many syllables in the word GIRL? how about TWIRL? how about PEARL?





SQUIRREL rhymes with these and has the same number of syllables. Which is one.
2
2


I learned some things in school lol.
First, I use one syllable. I have NEVER heard it said with 2.


Secondly, in the dictionary, both pronunciation keys are given.


Thirdly. to assume someones level of intelligence based solely on how they choose to say a word, shows the level of ignorance that exists within your minuscule cranium.
Definitely TWO!
Obviously it's not. And my verbal SAT scores can kick your a**
