Anne Gilbert observes that,

  >> There are also "jewelery", "libary", and "choresteral"

Someone else mentioned the first one, I believe.

I don't think the last two fit the particular pattern we've been
discussing--i.e., the insertion of a "@" sound between letters or
syllables. "Libary" (like "Febuary") is the omission of a consonant,
"choresteral" the substitution of two letters for the correct ones ("r" for
"l," "a" for "o").
