Cole Aivalotis :
• It comes from Italian colonnello, meaning “column (of soldiers) leader.”
• Early French borrowed it as colonnel (with that “loh” sound).
• Then French changed the spelling to coronel — because the “r” sounded more natural to French speakers.
• English borrowed this “coronel” version first, so people said KER-uh-nel.
• But later English switched back to the older Italian-style spelling “colonel”… while keeping the “r” sound.
• So you get a spelling from one form and a pronunciation from a different form.

Colonel is spelled like that because we took from a French word which was borrowed from an Italian word

even native English speakers don't know why it's pronounced like that. Also Kernel Is pronounced the same as Colonel

Because english is 3 languages wearing a trench coat pretending to be one language, similar looking words come from different route languages so sound different
