    Titan Gaol

    IT'S PRONOUNCED "JAIL"! UGH!

    jail or gaol (dʒeɪl)

    — n
    1. a place for the confinement of persons convicted and sentenced to imprisonment or of persons awaiting trial to whom bail is not granted
    2. informal get out of jail , get out of jail free to get out of a difficult situation

    — vb
    3. ( tr ) to confine in prison

    [C13: from Old French jaiole cage, from Vulgar Latin caveola (unattested), from Latin cavea enclosure; see cage : the two spellings derive from the forms of the word that developed in two different areas of France, and the spelling gaol represents a pronunciation in use until the 17th century]

    Pronounciation can be different for gaol compared to jail depending on which country the word is used in, but that jail==gaol I thought was common knowledge.
