Doesn't affect me. Then again its a very... rare word to be used. If I tried to use it in real life, as a license plate or something, people would think I'm some hippie.

Interesting.

Originally I pronounced it with a 'Too' sound, but over time it's adapted to be 'Ter-Uhl.'

Whenever I hear those two exclamation points, I turn my head.

I actually have a friend named Tural also. Pronounced the same way as Xiion's friend.
And as another amazing coincidence, He has more cats then me, and I have 6.
