Nice idea. This should help us start on a common ground to transliterate into other languages.
Some information I collected from internet regarding this topic,
English IPA for "Drupal"
Source https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drupal/ˈdruːpəl/
d as in "d"ye
r as in "r"ye
uː as in g"oo"se
p as in "p"ie
əl as in bott"le"Dutch IPA for "Druppel" from which the word "Drupal" is inspired from
Source https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/druppel/ˈdrʏ.pəl/
d as in "d"one
r as in "r"est
ʏ as in n"u"t
p as in "p"uck
ə as in lab"e"l
l as in "l"astFor Malayalam, I didn't find any IPA for "Drupal"
however in wikipedia it says "ദ്രുപാൽ"
Source: https://ml.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E0%B4%A6%E0%B5%8D%E0%B4%B0%E0%B5%81%E0%B4...To note here,
In "ദ്രുപാൽ", the "പാ" (P) sound would rhyme with "PayPal".
"ദ്രു" (D) sound is a a dental one (and not a retroflux). - 🇧🇪Belgium BramDriesen Belgium 🇧🇪
Let's use official sources instead of Wikipedia et al (see IS).
Pronounced “droo-puhl,” the name derives from the English pronunciation of the Dutch word “druppel,” which means “drop.”

How about this for IPA (International Phonetic Alphabet) pronunciation of Drupal:
/ˈdruː.pəl/
Breakdown:
/ˈdruː/ – stressed syllable, sounds like "droo" (rhymes with "true")
/pəl/ – unstressed, sounds like "puhl" (like the "ple" in "maple" when said quickly)
How could we get this added to Brand Guidelines? Who can decide on this and get it added there?
