Why on earth would it be vollockswagon

You don't pronounce it as its own seperate individual sound, that's not how words work, you pronounce the L in conjunction with the O and K

[Calderyon]

It´s Volkswagen.

And like it´s spelled.

I know, that's what got me thinking that maybe I was wrong, all these years I thoughht Gav was

[Niamh.]

But seriously this whole Folk thing is even more disturbing

[Livia]

I pronounce it Volksvargen. With the L. Volk is German for folk, isn't it.

No, I pronounce it with the L because it's a German word and that's how they pronounce it.

LOL... I love this loony place.
