This may be a bit off-topic, but everyone else told how they say these
words in their dialect, so here goes the Hungarian pronounciation!

SQL	Ash-Coo-Ell
etc	Eh-Tay-Tsay
usr	Oo-Ash-Err
chmod	Tsay-Ha-Mod
Debian	Deb-ee-Ah-n (short ee and long ah)
GNU	Gh-noo

We actually know how to pronounce them correcrlty (or at least I
thought so before reading this thread), but they are inconvenient to
use for us.
