- lsh 9y agoDo you pronounce Nutella "Nu-tella" or "Nut-ella" ? FWIW, I pronounce 'GNU' as 'nu'.
- champagnepapi 9y agoThe only reason as to why I pronounce "GNU" with a 'g' sound is because of Richard Stallman. Otherwise, I use the silent 'g'.
- firefoxd 9y agoNu-tella, though i don't have an american accent.
- imron 9y agoHe appears to pronounce it newtella.
- snvzz 9y agoThere's a p2p network called gnutella. It's not associated with GNU. It gets confusing.
- gschier 9y agoDon't forget g-nome too!
- dllthomas 9y agoThe name of the animal has a silent g. In software that would be a bit too confusing, though. "Do you use <nu> make?" "N-E-W or G-N-U?"
