Do you pronounce the word Flood: "Flod" or "Flood"? And for the word Blood? "Blod" or "Blood"?

I think every natural language has its own strangeness.

blood. Pronounced bl, then an uh sound (oo equals uh. Sometimes it equals the letter U without the "y" part, as in "food")
flood. same as blood, but with fl in front.

Louise provided the simplest and best explaination by far. In fact, mine to DragonsLover (on MSN) was exactly the same, even though I hadn't read it.
