How do you say URL ?

[deftron]

I've always said U - R - L ..



I've heard some people say it like the name "earl"
Especially a few of my professors at school..

I'm always like wtf and have to think a second about what they're talking about.

 

[deftron]

So, nobody says "earl"

I thought by teachers were wacked out..

U - R - L

 

[eakers]

i say "earl" just so people have to stop for a minute and be like "wtf? ... ohhhh"

 

[FoBoT]

both
depends on if i am talking hillbilly or not (earl is a hillbilly )

 

[Spac3d]

"earl" is easier to say than U-R-L

When did the pronunciation of URL come into debate? Does these people also try and pronounce HTTP? I'd like to hear that one

I used to say earl back in the day. Nowadays its URL.

Hearing somebody pronounce an abbrievation get on my nerves. I knew someone who referred to the United Parcel Service as "ups" rather than "U-P-S". If this is correct than why don't you ever hear somebody say "ooza" or "oosa" instead of "U-S-A" for United States of America? So you should say "U-R-L" and not "earl" if you want to sound intelligent.

I don't. Seriously, I can't ever remember saying URL in any conversation, ever. If I was going to say it, I'd go with You-Ar-Elle.

 

[erikiksaz]

WTF, i'm one out of the four that say "earl?!" MAnn, that's so odd, i thought i would be the majority At least i've saved myself about an hours worth of talking saying "earl" instead of spelling out U-R-L

 

[guyver01]

where i'm from.. we pronounce it... "hyper-link"

 

[Peetoeng]

If SQL --> sequel then URL --> urial.

Ok so if your talking about saying it, URL is 2 extra syllables. Spelling it URL is one less letter. Your a freak.

U-R-L
