Up here in Vancouver (not currently being rocked by earthquakes),

Although it's more correctly pronounced "byerked" ... as in the
singer. The dieresis flattens the vowel. BTW, are we off topic here?
Not at all. Diereses are becoming increasingly common in English text
due to the internationalism of internet and the advent of the Unicode
standard.
But I was taught that it "pinched" the vowel (not the English term for
stole (not the noun associated with minks)).
There may be subtle behaviors to account for in AppleScript terms such
as considering/ignoring diacriticals when using this or that text
encoding.
