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