How Is Linux Gnome Pronounced?
Contents

Since GNU is GNOME’s first name, GNOME is officially pronounced “guh-NOME”.

Do you say the g in GNOME?

The correct pronunciation is Gnome, straight forward. Not Nome or G-nome.

Is it pronounced Linux or Linux?

Linux would be pronounced as L-ih-nix if it were spelled Linnix. Linux IS pronounced as L-EYE-NIX since there is only one N. as we do. Thus letter I is pronounced as a LONG vowel EE.
