Correct spelling for the English word "jurnal" is [d͡ʒˈɜːnə͡l], [dʒˈɜːnəl], [dʒ_ˈɜː_n_əl] (IPA phonetic alphabet).
The word jurnal is derived from the Middle English word journale, which in turn comes from the Old French word jornel or jornal. The Old French term originally meant a daily or regular record of events or transactions. It was derived from the Latin word diurnalis, meaning daily. Over time, the spelling of the word evolved, and it was eventually anglicized to journal.
