  How else should you pronounce it? (i.e. I do this too, never thought about it before)

    > How else should you pronounce it? The official pronunciation is "klang" with a hard C: http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2008-July/015629.html http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2008-July/015629.ht... Exactly like the metallic "clang" http://www.thefreedictionary.com/clang http://www.thefreedictionary.com/clang which originates from the latin clangere

  No, you're not crazy. Some people definitely pronounce it C-lang, while others produce a banging sound (klang). I prefer the banging sound ;)

    The banging sound is also the one used by the developer team: http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2008-July/015629.html http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2008-July/015629.ht...

    Klang is also the German for "Sound"

  I've attended 2014 LLVM Developers' Meeting. Everyone there pronounced it as "klang" so that's how I pronounce it as well.
