I know at least 3 old folks who refer to the town where Mississippi State University is located as "Starksville". It isn't an extra syllable, but an extra letter. Does that count?

“Spear-a-mint”
As opposed to “spear-mint.”
Common in south Louisiana.
Well shite. I had to go to the google machine to double check you. For 43ish years I've said spear-a-mint. To old to change now.

“Had seen” - just say “I saw”
“Had gone or had went” - just say “I went”
“Had gone or had went” - just say “I went”

Hate it when people say "acrossed" instead of across.

Knew an old man that always said “Chi-car-go” instead of “Chicago”
Argued with me that that is how it was pronounced when he was growing up.
I explained that no , no it wasn’t ever ever pronounced like that

Page three and no one has mentioned that just about every one of the ex-athletes on TV say ath-a-lete instead of ath-lete.

I’m amazed at the number of people in this thread who don’t know what a syllable is.
