How to pronounce LINQ?

How to pronounce LINQ? Or should I just say L-I-N-Q? (LINQ is a .NET extension for queries.)


It seems the consensus is on "link".


In all the tutorials and according to Wikipedia it's simply pronounced /lɪŋk/ exactly like link. It's a Microsoft .NET Framework Component.


As someone posted on Stack Overflow and taken from the mouth of the founder of LINQ himself, take a look at the video under this link (hmmm):

I normally pronounce it as lee-n-kyu
