I think there is another factor here as well.
It also depends on how you pronounce the word.
If you say chulent like chew-lint, you are completely off. Go back to Willy town.
If you pronounce it chuh-lint, you’re good. It really doesn’t matter then how you spell it, although, chOlent might just be the grammatically correct way to.
If you spell it chOlent and say it like chow-lint, you belong in the KAJ, not here ;). YOU are talking about something totally different. Maybe its gruenkerren zup you mean.
