How would you pronounce the word GIRL in informal US english.I noted that it is pronounced like GAL true?

You're close! While "girl" and "gal" are often used interchangeably in informal US English, they are pronounced slightly differently.

* Girl: The "r" sound is pronounced, making it sound like "gurr-l."

* Gal: The "l" sound is silent, making it sound like "gal."

So, while "gal" can be used as a slang term for "girl," it doesn't quite have the same pronunciation.

However, in casual speech, the pronunciation of "girl" can be more relaxed and might sound closer to "gal" with the "r" sound being less distinct.
