A common way of determining how many syllables a word has is to clap whilst saying the world. For example, if you say the word "responsible" you will clap 4 times, breaking the word up into 4 syllables (re-spon-si-ble). If you are in an environment where you cannot clap, it's just as easy to do it in your head by saying a word slowly and counting how many "breaks" there are in a word.
