Obviously people who pronounce it like A say Troleing - I know I do

Sounds like Option A to me, and why is this 100% right?

Americans can't even pronounce English words correctly. They've got **** all chance of pronouncing Norwegian.

There are loads of examples of foreign words we use. You can say it however you want, but the correct way will be different.

Get back to your PLL ****e anyway!!

Glad to see A is winning, and rightly so.
