How do you pronounce "SUSE" as in "SUSE Linux?

[LordThing]

Novell just purchased them and they pronounce it SoozSay. At least that is what the reps on the phone and the ones that demo'd some stuff here did.

Beforehand I always said Soos. Like my last name Foose.

"it originally stood for System und Software Entwicklung, which is German for "System and software development"."

I :heart: Google.

Thanks for the information but the OP was asking for the pronounciation of "SUSE", not what the acronym stands for.

Thought the OP asked for both?

yes, he did. but people got hung up on the pronunciation and kinda forget about the acronym part.

it was clear from the 'german' part though, that it's supposed to be pronounced soo-say.
