Yeah, I'm aware that it's nonstandard English. That said, if she's aiming for acting adult like, learning what words aren't used isn't very hard to do. And considering she reads a lot of classic literature, if she's going to go for sophisticated, she'd probably sound more like a character out of Jane Austen.
TanaNari was asked for this a handful of chapters ago. Apparently Sophia's pretty much out of the picture, in terms of relevant scenes that actually have something to show.
Just like in canon. Good work Sophia! You being a complete screw up has (potentially) saved the world. Pat yourself on your back, because no one else is going to.
Kind of wondering if her lack of powers has anything to do with the amount of thought she's putting into her life/actions, since without the shard there, or at least as directly there, to generate conflict she's actually thinking about the best way to get advice to keep friendships working.
However, it is also meaningless.

If they let her out maybe she can findout who the Endmaker is by being herself..
I figured the word was an intentional effort to make Dinah seem human by making her duck up in an obvious and blatantly pretentious way. Her other flaws have been shown in fairly subtle ways.
And other posts, I guess.
Eh, it was used by a child. I'd advise not using it as part of narration, but for speech it's fine.
Blatantly wrong in this case though.
- Author arrogantly shoves his own flaws in the audience's face.
My problem with it is that I can can understand the rest of her language quirks as her trying to sound like her idea of what a grown-up should sound like. 'Irregardless' just sticks out as one of those things you don't say when trying to sound smarter than you are.
What, why? Using words wrongly is a clear symptom of trying to appear smarter than you are.
I expect better from Dinah.

This enrages the Peanuckle.
Regardless = without regard for
Ir = a negative modifier; i.e. "irrespective = without respect for"
Thus
Irregardless = without without regard for.
It's a nonsensical double-negative.
Bingo.
I'm sorry, but you've just disqualified yourself from having an opinion about words.
Well, she doesn't get a chance too often.
Don't listen. I'm perfectly fine with Missy glutting on the spotlight.
Dinah apologizes for not meeting your expectations of young teenage girls. That apology even has a 7.373% chance of being sincere!
Because getting Professional help doesn't do the shards any favor,their shards have strangered them to never see that as a choice. or Pantheon wants them to trigger again so they have more fire power,if they become mentality unstable they're put down and they reboot a pretriggered copy.if they're stable then they reboot a copy with the old power to increase their numbers.
Sorry, but that's wrong. It is a word. http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/irregardless
While that's technically true, I wouldn't assume that means they'll be allies.
Anyways, alot of us use kind of nonstandard English, alright?
And the rest of you can't have expected anything different.

Never mention this in your girlfriend's hearing.
'Oh' should be italicized, I think.

It wouldn't surprise me if Pantheon made such help available. That doesn't necessarily mean that you can mandate it, though.
Nobody cares, and all of that has been said already four different times.
If you're going to criticize someone for trying to insert formal logic rules into language, you really ought to include phrases like:
