Considering that until I heard it spoken, I pronounced Ms. Twain's name "SHAH-nya," I probably shouldn't talk. (Like that's ever stopped me.)

All those things have unstressed and mostly-swallowed syllables that I might pronounce if Being Theatrical, but mostly just hint at when speaking. Except "poem," which in my diction would slide too close to "pomme," and "jooolry," which vies with "jury" and "Jewry" in the soundscape, but "jew-el-ry" sounds aff-ec-ted.
