the pronunciation these beings think of for the word is somewhat different.
These beings are not going to take phonetic language for now, so it'll be estimated.
"juwl-ry" or "juul-ry" is how they would pronounce it. But that is how it is between different forms of English. To 'thul, adding the extra "le" near the end adds one syllable and thus feels wrong. At the same time, "jewel" is not pronounced "jewl" or "juul", but with all its letters or a similar-length form like "juuel". removing the "e" before the "l" here feels wrong.

Note:
when 'thul write in all italics, it is the lord of the three realms within 'thul speaking. A fairly egoistical, but also somewhat simple-minded dragon. Do not take such posts at face value.
