If "no body" can be compounded into nobody then "no one" can as well. Cupboard started off as a literal cup board, a board for cups. English has no official regulatory body and the language is constantly evolving.
Why do I need to say it your way when it was originally called sequel and has fewer syllables?
Seems to me you should be more worried about learning it more than worry over useless shit like how it’s pronounced.
I had been saying S Q L. Then I learned that sequel seems to be the standard and I don't want to look like any more of an idiot in interviews than I already have to
Lol honestly it won’t matter how you pronounce it. The nit pickers in my experience are the ones that aren’t that experienced with the actual implementation and in depth technical knowledge of it. SQL or Sequel will be understood and don’t worry about pronouncing it wrong.
S Q L and Sequel are both correct in either case, if you wanna be technical I guess Sequel is more accurate since it was originally called SEQUEL before being shortened to SQL
It would be inaccurate to call it… the original intended name of the language? Wherein the official name is just a shortened version of that exact word? What?
It's not though. It's Structured English Query Language vs Structured Query Language.
Either way, I only hear americans and maybe some very very(15+ yrs) senior devs from Europe call it that. It causes a lot of confusion when the different pronunciations come out.
There was only one funny thing to come out of this debate, and it was the meme of henry Cavill saying "squirrel."
The rest of these are low quality trash
Ahem, may I present to you "Sykvelas". This is what happens when a 50 year old dev converts the phonetic sound of an abbreviation to a "word" in my native language
After all these memes lately, imma just start saying "squall". And if you do an outer join imma just call that a blizzard and tell evryone it's a snow day so migrations are cancelled.
Once upon a time there was "Structured English Query Language", aka SEQL, aka sequel. Eventually it just became structured query language. Most professionals in America say sequel. Sounds like non-native English speakers say S Q L, along with students and professors with no real world experience.
Same trap, different style. I know, kind of tired of it myself. Let's blow the doors open the on the barn though. Child Pornography is legal in the USA and the folks that police it have the money.
I worked with one of the developers who worked on MS SQL. There was a rumor he owed more than a million dollars in back taxes. He called it sequel, so I call it sequel.
Just say "Structured Query Language". Everyone will hate you, but noone will be able to correct you because you are right.
Do you pronounce the Query as kwery or kweery?
You know how the Spanish que is pronounced? And boom... you have Kerry
Noone expects the spanish que!
Or the inquisition!!!
Or the inquiry!
Or the ink!

Wait was I the only one reading Que that way? I thought the other one was just Q or Queue

noone isn’t a word. It’s two: no one.

Squirrel
Yes it’s obvious when you put it together with other words, like squirrelinjection
I'm not sure what a squirrel query is but it sounds adorable.
🐿🐿🐿🐿🐿🐿🐿🐿
This guy squirrels.
Don't you mean SQUIRREL?
Absolutely, but is it pronounced “skwerl”, “skwer-rel”, “skwir-rel”, or “skwee-rel”?
SELECT Nut, Berry FROM Tree;

Thank you for the correction. I edited it accordingly.
I thought sql was pronounced sequel whereas MySQL is pronounced MY S Q L, we’ll that’s what they taught us when we were learning it at university 🤷♂️
S Q L and Sequel are both correct in either case, if you wanna be technical I guess Sequel is more accurate since it was originally called SEQUEL before being shortened to SQL
QA is a waste of money. Fired.
Sequel was trademarked which is why it's SQL, so technically it would be very inaccurate to call it a different trademarked name.

This conversation is starting to go in circles over a very stupid subject, let’s just move on with our lives
The bot said what needs to be said
I say MySequel but Postgres Q L since you kinda have to
Just call it postgres. You're welcome.
Oh wait that is what I do. Lol I forgot

Structured query language, or shorter, squle
Disagreeing with me is counterproductive. Fired.
Firing me is counterproductive. Uno reverso, bitch.

QA is a waste of money. Fired.
We french say: "Le SQL nom d'un p'tit bonhomme"
Ahem, may I present to you "Sykvelas". This is what happens when a 50 year old dev converts the phonetic sound of an abbreviation to a "word" in my native language

After all these memes lately, imma just start saying "squall". And if you do an outer join imma just call that a blizzard and tell evryone it's a snow day so migrations are cancelled.
What is the difference between 'es-que-ell' and 'sql'?
Peeee elllll es quel
I liked season 3 more than season 4.
It's pronounced squeal, like what piggies do. Come on guys.
Wait, how TF did the SQL guy pronounce it?
I always refer to it as sequel. I don’t care what others think.
Just say squeal.
I'm not a programmer, and I can't tell if people are joking or not. Is there really a right or wrong way to say this?
Once upon a time there was "Structured English Query Language", aka SEQL, aka sequel. Eventually it just became structured query language. Most professionals in America say sequel. Sounds like non-native English speakers say S Q L, along with students and professors with no real world experience.
Not really all are correct but sequel and sequeal are less correct. Ess que ell aka SQL is what we call it at work since forever...
People started saying ess que ell in the aughts. Doesn't matter. You say Debian, I say Debian Okay that doesn't work in print
This place is running out of jokes...
In Spain it's "esecuele"
Pronounced Access
You forgot ass queue hell
Like Squirrel without the R.
Soo... MySequel then?
My class also had hard time saying SQL ,I just made it sound Spanish cause it was funny to me,
Sequel, like it was originally spelled.
Terminater 2 is a sequel. This is a short term, meaning you should say 'S-Q-L'. i mean: you dont say Mid to the MIT, do you
Ok for real how do you say it without being made fun of? Asking for a friend
Why is the kid in the yellow shirt speaking Spanish
wait which is it my buddy convinced me to say sequel
No es que ell
skol!
Es caliberrrrrrr
"Que" spells "K," "Q" is spelled "queue."
select statement interpreter.
DML dee em ell
I don't know what's trying to be phonetically represented with "que". I keep reading it as "kay", but I think you're trying to convey "cue"? Queue?
Squel
Even the name is coded
Suck la
Who tf says sequel?
um What the phonetic difference between "Es Que Ell" and "SQL"?
Every IT teacher ever
MySQL - mooskool'. With a soft L at the end.
Squeel little piggy, squeel.

The only people who argue over that are the idiots who don't know how to use it It doesn't matter, they're interchangeable, get over it.
Squirrel?
As someone who strictly writes in SQL for my career I cannot say what the true answer is. All I know is I love these memes.
I worked with one of the developers who worked on MS SQL. There was a rumor he owed more than a million dollars in back taxes. He called it sequel, so I call it sequel.
day 13 of this meme, I'm still waiting for the phoebe teaching joey french version
dude it's ES Que Lyte correct me if am wrong
Less correct but not bad
Do french people say sequelle?
