Stupid sounding word, anyway.

Hey, Americans say goosebumps, right? Not goose pimples or anything even stupider?

Is it one word or two?

It's regional, but in a pretty random way. An American character could say either of those without sounding strange. Goosebumps is one word, goose pimples is two.

Yay thanks.

The online dictionary I looked at says goosebumps is two words, but I didn't believe it!
