The spelling of the word "Bohling" is somewhat confusing phonetically. It is pronounced /ˈboʊlɪŋ/, meaning that the "o" is pronounced like in "low", the "i" is pronounced like in "pin", and the "ng" has its usual velar nasal sound. This pronunciation can lead to confusion when spelling the word, as the "o" may be mistaken for an "a" and the "i" for an "e". However, once the phonetics are known, the word's spelling becomes clearer.
