The other day while trying to combat PC-withdrawal sypmtons by watching Australia's home shopping channel, TVSN. I heard a presenter pronounce "jewellery" as "jurry".The lady in question seemed to have a hybrid Oz/US accent, but nothing prepared me for that abomination! I'm used to hearing "joolry" but wondered if anybody had ever heard "jurry" before. I ask at least partly because it's 22:25 here, and still 20 degrees Celsius, which makes sleeping difficult. Adieu.
