-<h3>How should I pronounce &#8220;TeX&#8221;?</h3>
-<p/>The &#8216;X&#8217; is &#8220;really&#8221; the Greek letter
-Chi, and is pronounced by
-English-speakers either a bit like the &#8216;ch&#8217; in the Scots word &#8216;loch&#8217;
-([x] in the IPA) or (at a pinch, if you can&#8217;t do the Greek sound) like
-&#8216;k&#8217;. It definitely is not pronounced &#8216;ks&#8217; (the Greek letter with that
-sound doesn&#8217;t look remotely like the Latin alphabet &#8216;X&#8217;).
-<p/>This curious usage derives from Knuth&#8217;s explanation in the TeXbook
-that the name comes from the Greek word for &#8216;art&#8217; or &#8216;craft&#8217;
-(&#8216;<em>techni</em>&#8217;),
-which is the root of the English word &#8216;technology&#8217;. Knuth&#8217;s logo for TeX is
-merely the uppercase version of the first three (Greek) letters of the
-word, jiggled about a bit; we don&#8217;t use that logo (and logos like it)
-in this FAQ (see
-<a href="FAQ-logos.html">Typesetting TeX-related logos</a>).
