I use the German pronounciation:
T[ea] [y]OU [h]->[y]OU S
which sounds like "t:u:'s", an abbreviation of "tue es", which
tranlates to the English "do it". I always thought this is a good
match.

"oy newks" (rhymes with "yoo neecks"). Sometimes also "dee oy newks".

Ah, the days when I had to maintain an AIX box; I always pronounced it
"aches" (as in "pains"). Mind you, I quite liked SMIT; it was the only
sane way to admin the thing.
