I'm curious on how to pronounce a specific Linux file when speaking out loud. Is that an appropriate question to ask? Or too subjective?

I guess you could ask what the accepted pronunciation is for a given command, since any common command will probably have one. Less well known projects that have unclear pronunciations probably address it on their website.

There have already been a couple of such questions which was quite well received:

    Postgresql even has an audio recording in their press faq: postgresql.org/about/press/faq Last question on the page. I think it's completely appropriate.
