Figures from each repo's GitHub metadata at analysis time.
This repository is a reference guide that lists English technical words commonly mispronounced by Chinese-speaking programmers. Technology is full of English terms, words like "cache," "array," "async," and brand names like "Adobe" or "Azure", and many of these are pronounced very differently from how they look on paper. Non-native English speakers often guess the pronunciation based on spelling, which leads to errors that can cause confusion in international team meetings or video presentations. The project provides a table of terms alongside their correct British and American English phonetic spellings, the commonly wrong pronunciation, and a Chinese translation of the word's meaning. It also links to audio clips so you can actually hear the correct pronunciation without visiting external dictionaries. You would use this as a quick lookup reference before a meeting, a demo, or any situation where you need to say English technical words aloud with confidence. It covers common programming concepts, tool names, company names, and framework names used in software development. There is also a companion website, a browser extension for looking up pronunciations inline, and an iOS app. The project is written in JavaScript.
