Jew-lie is July Johnson, my favourite character in Lonesome Dove.

As in, the month we are currently in?

Juh-lie. I’ve never heard it pronounced any other way, thinking about it.

Sharrilanda · 03/07/2024 22:50

Oh crikey
This has got me questioning my very existence now as it's my birthday month!
Have I been saying it wrong my entire life 😆
I've always thought there's only one way (my way!) now I'm not so sure...😂

MonsteraMama · 03/07/2024 22:51

Juh-lie. Who else is sat here whispering July to themselves now?

RightOnTheEdge · 03/07/2024 22:52

Juh-lie.
I'm from the North, I've never heard anyone pronounce it Jew-lie.

Anotherdayanotherdollar · 03/07/2024 22:52

Ju- lie, like the first syllable in "just".
Jew-lie is joo-lie

Velvetbee · 03/07/2024 22:55

Juh lie

J-lie

Jew-lie is how I would say it if I was using an American accent.

BingoMarieHeeler · 03/07/2024 23:12

Depends where it comes in the sentence/the emphasis etc.

KirstenBlest · 03/07/2024 23:13

The u is like in the letter U.
It's not Jew or Juh.

EasterlyDirections · 03/07/2024 23:13
