Ok, I like this game / question, but I daresay I'm confused about some of these (or have not even fathomed some of the implied pronunciations).

`seq`, `Eq`, `prev` I pronounce like the beginnings of the underlying words, so I'd say pronounce-then-abbreviate and abbreviate-then-pronounce yield the same result.

I guess this implies people are saying "SECK" (`seq`) and "ECK" (`Eq`), rhyming `prev` with "rev", and pronouncing `id` like Freud's id? (Eek.)

In fairness, I'll confess I pronounce `enum` "E-NUM", not "E-NOOM".
