I go with duh (no, not quite duh I guess it is that schwa sound they talked about 40 years ago) sul tor ee.
I guess this word is of English origin. Too bad. My argument as an American is that i can pronounce any foreign word the way I want, and if the originating speakers don't like it, too bad. Keep your word out of my language then. I have no excuse for mispronouncing English words.
