Does usually have 3 syllables?

I always pronounce "generally" as a three-syllable word ["dZEnr\@li], with the stress on the first syllable. (Even in formal speech, I would still just pronounce it with three syllables.) Both four- and three-syllable pronunciations are correct.

Is simpler 2 or 3 syllables?

However, the correct form is “simpler”.

For words with 3 or more syllables, the correct usage would be to add “more” in front of the word. Since “simple” has 2 syllables, it is correct to add “-er” to the word. The correct comparative form is “simpler”.
