My first thought when I saw the title too.
I thought jsonnet was pronounced “J sonnet” like poetry, but a friend of mine has always pronounced it like the title of this new tool. He’s an excellent English speaker but it’s not his first language, so I assumed that was related to the different pronunciation. It sounded nice and I never misunderstood the subject, plus he’s excellent at dissecting complex jsonnet templates, so I never felt the need to point out the difference.
Now your comment had me wondering if the alternative pronunciation is more widespread than I realized, and perhaps even the “correct” way, so I looked it up… must be a common question because it’s right there on the bottom of their home page, haha
> The name Jsonnet is a portmanteau of JSON and sonnet, pronounced "jay sonnet".
