Here in France, I've never heard anyone say "sequel". Or "engine-x" for nginx (which we usually pronunce as "n-ginx").

SPDY is a bit of a problem because saying "speedy" sounds silly, and the name of "Y" is really awkward in an acronym in French (it's two syllables, "i grec"). Not that it's really a problem since nobody uses it.

I wish people would stop using Y in acronyms or pseudo-acronyms. And W too. I don't even know how English-speaking people say "www".

> which we usually pronunce as "n-ginx"

Is that like "en jinks"?

Not far from "double you dubl dub you" :)

For what it's worth, "dub dub dub" as a pronounciation makes my skin crawl.

I've always called it SQL since old school days, and still do.

I would call it Speedy as well, not EsPeeDeeWhy, that's another given.
