you are absolutely right. irregardless means without regard, which also means regardless. therefore, irregardless means regardless. kinda like water and H2O. they are the same thing, with two different words to describe them. They are both words, meaning the same thing. another example: swam and swum. they also mean the same thing, and are different words. just because the prefix "ir" is used does not mean that the word becomes "without without regard". Examples of this would be irritated. no, it does not mean "without ritated." as you may think, instead it means to provoke impatience or anger. If you have any other questions about usage of words, please ask.
