*is a little bit confused how anyone's still maintaining it's A*

The thread title is how do you pronounce Troll? so my answer is still A and i'm not going to change that just because someone on an internet forum posts a link saying otherwise.

B =

And I doubt very much that Kizzy, Scott, Glenn and the gang look like that, so that proves it is A.

he was saying it like Option B, that's what inspired this thread

The internet troll is the only time I've heard it used the B way, surely people dont say it that way talking about the guy under the bridge in the 3 Billy Goats Gruff :suspect:

I'm going on the basis that I'm never wrong....

So it's B.

well he was saying it wrong :hmph:

Yes he was :hugesmile:

I don't care. Saying it like the B version just sounds weird.

IMO, because it has the word 'roll' within it, should be enough evidence that it should be pronounced like A over B.

What about trolley?

Majority Rules, it's option A and that's the end of it :idc:

I have no explanation for that. :laugh:

But the troll thing is just cause of where I live I suppose. Everyone I know would say troll like A rather than like B, so maybe that's why it sounds so odd to me.

People don't want the right answer, they want their answers to be right.

Yeah I agree and say it A as well anyway so not sure why I'm trying to prove you wrong :tongue:

That recording you posted sounded like Troll rhymes with Roll to me

Correct.

What trolls :bored:

Niamh, where in are you from?

I used to go out with a girl from Cork, and she said Ve-hee-cul for Vehicle. Always made me laugh.

lol, was she from West Cork? I'm from Cork City originally

It has been proved that the answer is B, so everyone who chose A must just change the way they say it in the future

How has it been proven?

This is something that is totally reliant on your upbringing and background, so therefore there is no correct pronunciation. :nono: Even though A is the right way to say it.

Grammatically it must be B as the present tense is pronounced trolling not 'trole'ing?

I'm not sure exactly. She said it was countryside. It was a relationship that burned bright and fizzled out quickly. We didn't spend a lot of time discussing each others backgrounds. She was really lovely though, and I could have listened to her voice forever.
