Should 2011 be pronounced as "Twen-ty E-lev-en" or "Twent-ee-lev-en" ?

 So I think we can all agree saying "Twen-tyE-lev-en" is too many damn syllables at five. Anybody agree that four syllables is the right amount even if it's not technically proper?
 
edit: Here's some clarification.
 
Do you pronounce the year 2011 in short form using the double 'e' sound between the two words?  5 syllables  ---> A
Or do you combine the 'e' sounds into one, cutting out a syllable like a contraction? 4 syllables ---> B
 
I'm not talking about the long form, "Two Thousand Eleven"

Totally read that second pronunciation wrong, who the hell would say that? 

" I say A (i'm English) My friends say B (there American)  depends on you're accent. "

Crazy people would say B.

How about "two thousand and eleven"? That's more proper I would think.

" Lazy people would say B. "

I think we should put aside our differences and start preparing for the zombie outbreak of 2012. The end is near folks.

Fixed "

A. 
 
Don't be crazy.

" I say A (i'm English) My friends say B (there American)  depends on you're accent. "

Two Thousand and Eleven.

" Two Thousand and Eleven. "

Really. please use the pronunciation key found in a dictionary. I have no clue what you are talking about. 
 
I know, I'm a prick, I like things done right.

I say A...but people around my area say it as Two Thousand and Eleven most of the time.

What's wrong with two thousand eleven?

Twen-ty-X-I

Hundred Score Eleven.

If I heard someone say "twenteeleven" I would punch them in the mouth.

I say Two-Zero-One-One because that's hardcore

Its Two Thousand And Eleven because I'm not some dickhead American. 
 
I'm not saying all Americans are dickheads. Just the ones that exclude 'and'. Its like writing 'ur' instead of 'your' because its two letters shorter. Its just lazy and stupid -coughwebstercough-.

A. If you're using B something is very wrong.

"  So I think we can all agree saying "Twen-ty E-lev-en" is too many damn syllables at five. I propose we reduce the pair of touching "e" syllables to just one, resulting in a year that's as easy to pronounce as "Two Thou-sand Five" was.Anybody agree that four syllables is the right amount even if it's not technically proper? "

I am upset that Roman numerals were not a choice.

Thanks, I'm gonna start saying twen-tee-lev-en now :D

" Two Thousand and Eleven. "

If you need to shorten 2011 then you are a lazy fuck who should get off the internet and hang themselves.

well, 'fcourse ever'one is going to say A.) becawz that's tha way it's spowzed tuh bee pronunced. 
 
But obviously in fast speech people are going delete the short vowel "e" at the beginning of "eleven" and assimilate it, or even altogether delete it, into the end "y" in "twenty". So it becomes "Twenty 'Leven". This isn't a new concept in language, people do it all the time.

I say two-thousand-eleven because I'm win
 
Edit: Also, two-thousand-eleven is proper... Twenty-eleven is not.

Only crazy people don't say twenty-eleven.

I think your friends may be retarded.  "

Twentyleven is pretty much the worst thing ever.

" Really. please use the pronunciation key found in a dictionary. I have no clue what you are talking about.   I know, I'm a prick, I like things done right. "

20 + 11. Are you fucking retarded? What else would it be. 
 
This poll is shit. Fuck this thread. Back to my cake.

How about two thousand and eleven like a normal human being?

It says "Twen-ty" and "Elev-en"  But the "elev" is very much two syllables even if there's no hyphen. Any chimp could see this.  Your prickishness would be called for if you had some kind of point to make. But that's not the case.    @ The rest: Fine, then quit using "don't" and other contractions, because that's exactly what this is. Come back in two months when it starts sounding even stupider saying the extra "e" and "and". "

"OK, dolt. Here is the pronunciation should be typed out for you.

twen-tē (20) i- ˈle-vən  (11) that makes sense.     Twen-ty E-lev-en does not. "

neither, I say two thousand and eleven.

Someone's trying to get majorly hip on us.

I'm sorry, but if I hear "twent-ee-lev-en" come out of someone's mouth, I will have no choice but to punch them.

B sounds like someone who descended from the Levi tribe.

Well i'm Croatian so...um..Dvije tisuče i jedanaest?
