      @aerotwist @jaffathecake @addyosmani You're some of the top players in this area, so if you pronounce it wrong, everyone will. Cheers.

      @jaffathecake @aerotwist @addyosmani Looks like Babel, Traceur and gif will share the same fate of popular > author's pronunciation then. ;(

      @Ult_Combo @jaffathecake @addyosmani I’m rusty on my phonetics but I believe we are correct on the Babel one: /ˈbeɪb(ə)l/ (from Google)

      @aerotwist @ult_combo @jaffathecake @addyosmani It has two pronunciations. https://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/pronunciation/english/babel … I'd prefer the way I pronounce it.

      @sebmck @aerotwist @Ult_Combo @jaffathecake There's no "right" pronunciation any more than US'ians saying /təˈmeɪtoʊ/ are "wrong".

          @oliverturner Also US'ians is weird. The way I pronounce it is more accurate to the original Hebrew @aerotwist @ult_combo @jaffathecake

          @sebmck interesting, although counter examples abound: English poets _used_ to rhyme "vase" with "face", just like US'ians. Not any more!
