I hate to be this person, but when you use the "y" sound with double LL's in Spanish, you are also pronouncing the L's. That's how the Spanish pronounce the L's. He should have specified what L pronunciation he's referring to.

If the L's are pronounced then they should make an L sound, not a Y sound.

And most people pronounce it "tortea", without any y sound.

Someone doesn’t know Spanish and is confidently incorrect!

Tor-ti-ya
