Don't quite know exactly how to pronounce SUSE? We've got you covered....Broadway musical style. Singer: Christian BusathSchool age boy: Liam TharpLyrics a...

I always thought those whoe said susa instead of soos are wrong.

Suse stands for “Software und System-Entwicklung” https://linuxiac.com/opensuse/

Edit: Yes, she can still be wrong but then it’s supported by the rest of susa’s staff https://youtu.be/RsME20zXbQI&t=13

    So it’s a joke by suse themself?

    No, obviously not.

    The joke and the funny song still works, but his pronounciation is simply wrong. He pronounces something like “Susa” with an a.

    The correct pronounciatuon of this e goes - as another commenter already said - like the first e in ‘mesmerized’.

        As another German, I can confirm that the “first e in mesmer” way is how Germans would pronounce it. See for example 11seconds into this German video also officially from SUSE’s YouTube channel.

          That’s great, thx. Hence, in German it’s suse and in English it’s officially susa.

      It’s a schwa, the most common vowel in English.

        I have heard that the French have created their very own pronounciation for “computer”.

        They say “ordinateur”.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
