True, and I think you would find most Europeans pronouncing that way
after the name of it's creator. But most Americans still pronounce it:
Len~ucks. An incorrect pronunciation would be: Line~ucks. Some
mispronounce it that way due to the close proximity to the Peanuts
cartoon character, Linus. I often find myself slipping up and
pronouncing it that way. Fortunately, I am usually alone at the time.
LOL. :-)
