If you call it Sequel and not S.Q.L and you happen to be from India, I will assume you’re a corporate shmuck. Figh - devRant

If you're not from India and still call it sequel, I will assume you are talking about MSSQL and nothing else.

Pronunciation is better than abbreviations.

If you're from India and you call it sequal, I'm assume you're talking about SQL. If you call it SQL I'll also assume you're talking about SQL.

The same applies if you're not from India.

Fun fact: SQL was initially SEQUEL but later shortened for trademark reasons.

It's "Sequel". As in "My Sequel or M.S. Sequel".

And I'd fight you, but I'm a cornfed former collegiate linebacker and you're... from India.

It's structured query language.

Now take your abbreviations and fight on a pointless fight wasting your breath on pronunciation of an abbreviation...

I don't tend to care how people say something, as long as it gets the point across. And GIF is GIF.

@Condor isn’t it funny that gif creator itself insists on pronouncing it “JIF”

@kiki Richard Stallman calls Linux GNU/Linux, yet nobody sane does that either.
