Sorry, but you're wrong, Lassia. It's pr. OLL-luh. (OLL almost like in "wool").

That makes us both correct: the 'oo' sound in 'wool' is quite what I meant. I'd pronounce 'oll' something like in 'doll'.

Anyway, the important thing is that the first sound is u-like, not your regular 'o'.

But I do think there is stress on the second syllable as well!
