strange pronunication for the l in juvenile

0As shown below, the first pronunciation for 01b00juvenile02b00 should be popular in US. But the pronunciation for the01i01b00 l02b02i00 in it is very strange to me. 02br

00Any comments about this? Are there other similar cases in American English? Thanks a lot.0-

0 There's a misprint in my opinion. They were trying to show two pronunciations in one, and they messed it up by failing to add the final "l", and then, to make matters worse, they represented the second pronunciation (with the schwa) in a different way.02br
