Title: Tiny Vampires
ttto: Tiny Bubbles by Leon Pober
I thinkn that "bubbles" has two syllables
and that "vampires" has three syllables.
As I'd pronounce it, "vampire" has two syllables.
It's like asking people from various states how many syllables "oil"
or "fire" have. And while I normally pronounce "interest" with two
syllables, somehow it always has three in my filks.
As far as my normal pronunciation of "vampire" - I think I'd call it
2.5 syllables.
