We probably don’t pronounce words properly anymore. Jerk is pronounced “jerk,” but work is pronounced “werk.” I do NOT understand why work is not pronounced like “fork” work/fork.
Massively confusing. No wonder no one wants to try to learn American English.

Well, of course, where I live “jerk” is pronounced “joik”.
