JSON is pronounced Jason
But only if you do it like Heavy Rain.
SCSI was always skuzzy.
Ah, I see, you’re a person of culture and distinguished taste.

I feel like this one is relatively uncontroversial

URL pronounced as “earl” however? I’ll spend all of my remaining energy in life ensuring the person saying it is stapled to the bottom of the Mariana trench with rebar

I say Jay-sahn.

Lots of people do, and it makes no sense.

How do you pronounce “J”?

How do you pronounce “son”?

Now put them together.

Oh I get it!

How do you pronounce “e”?

How do you pronounce “yes”?

Now put them together for “eyes”!

Sure, that explains why people pronounce it that way now. What I’m wondering is why people started pronouncing it that way in the first place. When I see the letters JSON, my brain parses it as J-SON. It’s even a common first name ffs.
I couldn’t say. There is an older guy in my group who calls it “Jason”. Also we have 2 guys on my team named Jason and the back end jason now goes by J-Sahn. I read it j sahn and I have no idea why.

So, how do you say “J” then?

“ᒋ”?

Y E S spells yes. What does E Y E S spell?

LOL! I wouldn’t pronounce “J son” like Jason, either!

“Son” is pronounced “sun”. Jason is pronounced Jay-sin.

“Jay-sahn” makes sense because it’s how I pronounce it. Also, I’ve had coworkers named Jason, and I want to be able to say “Use JSON” without it sounding like I’m saying “Use Jason”.

You sound like a fun person to work with.

It isn’t Jason, it’s Jayson. But yeah, basically indistinguishable.

And the only sane choice, as opposed to Sequel.

J-Son ≠ K-Son
