No, it has 'er' instead of 'ar' sound. In fact, 'err' is a better word than 'earl'

- zhemao 11y agoIn Standard Mandarin pronunciation, er is definitely pronounced like "arr". If you don't believe me, listen to the pronunciation given by Google Translate. https://translate.google.com/#zh-CN/en/%E4%BA%8C https://translate.google.com/#zh-CN/en/%E4%BA%8C There might be some regional accents which pronounce it more like "err", but "arr" is the standard pronunciation.
- happywolf 11y agoI agree the google translate link above pronounces this character very close to 'Arr', however do note the Pinyin (Chinese phonetic system), 'Er' starts with 'E'. Just for the sake of discussion, here is character that starts with 'A'. See if you feel the difference. https://translate.google.com/#zh-CN/en/%E5%95%8A https://translate.google.com/#zh-CN/en/%E5%95%8A
