Keith and List,

The link opened to a quick sound that contrasts with the others I've been trying to follow. It offers the standard American pronunciation, is it? And from what region in the US? I'm still lost among oak bluff, bloke in a huff (which I formerly thought suggested how it would be worded in Russian) and this new sound.
