    I think Link is correct, but who knows. Ling, perhaps might be an option? I can understand the confusion.

    The reason I was asking is I was talking to another couple and he kept saying Lin-que. So then it started to bug me on how to say it. Not that I plan on saying it a lot but just a perfectionist.

    Removed original posting. A few minutes of google search provided several pronunciations. I'll just go with LINK.

    The Q is silent.

    So - "Lin"

    And, same for Quad.

    Just say "odd"
