here in San Diego you see the word Carmel a LOT in street addresses.  

 

at this point my mind defaults to saying it the same way for caramel you put on a sundae

I’ll go with whatever @teef says on this one. 

my initial thought was car-a-mel, but after repeatedly saying it out loud, i tend to say car-mel.  i'm confused, and now i'm going to take the rest of the day off.

I say CAR-mel corn. 
 

But I also say CARE-a-mel apple. 
 

It’s a stupid word and I hate the Germans for inventing English.

jesus...i do the same thing.  the candy by itself would be car-mel, but on a apple it definitely is car-a-mel.  now i hate the word as much as golf.

Takes a bit of perseverance on the viewer's part, but you'll get to the definitive pronunciation. 😁

 

 

Oh Henry agrees.
