Open-source software pronunciation

Open-source software pronunciation-general Linux technology-Linux technology and application information, the following is a detailed description. COLLECTOR: Rain marks

Recently, I started to contact open-source software and encountered some difficulties in reading audio. I searched the internet for some information and sorted it out:

UNIX, euix, there is no dispute. Same as eunuchs (eunuch. So there is an old joke: "some people use Unix and some people are eunuchs ".

GNU/Linux: many people may not know the pronunciation of GNU, and thus directly read the G-N-U, in fact, according to the GNU official website, GNU should be issued as guh-Noo, it is similar to the pronunciation of 'ganu. For Linux, the pronunciation is strange. The main difference lies in the pronunciation of the letter u. What about this u? Some of them are made into 'yie', some are made into 'U', some are made into 'er ', and some are made into 'A, I have heard a lot of 'yi' and 'U', but I have never heard of anything else. He said: Hello, I am Linus Torvalds, I pronounce Linux as Linux. I have listened to it several times, and it should be sent to a sound similar to 'er '(that is, the u pronunciation in the word 'bonus), so Linux should read it as 'Lee ks'

SUSE: the release of Novell, known as "easy to use, difficult to pronounce. This is also a chaotic one. How can we read it? Come to an authoritative speaker: Soo-suh (Sousse ?? Suther ?? Sasa ?? It's not suxi)

Ubuntu: the most popular release version. I guess few Chinese will read this word. Marlize Coetzee from Ubuntu's parent company said: "Ubuntu, the words from Zulu and Xhosa are read as oo-boon-too )"

Debian: It seems that many people (including me) read it as "Beane", but this is not the case. the actual source of this seemingly exotic word is very simple, is the connection between two people-Deb and Ian. Therefore, the correct reading method is DEB-ee-un.

GNOME, I think it should be read as normal.

Gentoo is the real land. It is said to be the name of a penguin.

Azureus: Reading the name of this famous BT client has always been the focus of debate. Azureus officially states that there is no official pronunciation of this word, but they suggest reading it as uh-Zoo-ree-us.

Liferea: the famous RSS REAder is abbreviated as LInux FEed REAder. "I, a German, read the name 'Lee-fer-rejah' (Note: I have learned a little German, therefore, the pronunciation must be 'liveley', which is a beautiful name ). But I think many people in English-speaking countries will make a different sound, so this word has no official pronunciation"

QT: This is very interesting, many people read into the letter Q-T, but the official pronunciation of qiqu company is Cute, no wonder QT made out of the interface so Cute.

MySQL, My-sequel or My-S-Q-L, mcsey is popular. The official team seems to want the next pronunciation

LateX, Laad, And the last speaker, some of whom say coth and others say that the European pronunciation is good.

SCSI

Xfce, founder of Olivier Fourdan, corrected that it was to read four letter audios or X-F-See, and should be written as Xfce or XFce. The XFCE writing method has been canceled. As a matter of fact, I have always been reading OSS.

Ximian: I read the West and the West seem to read the product area.

There are also more off-the-shelf words, such as Firefox, or only letters, such as IDE.
