Re: [Haskell-cafe] Monad pronounced like gonad?

A more pressing question. How do you pronounce the following:

-> In both case expressions and lambdas I would not read this if it could be decided by context and vocal dynamics (like the way most people pronounce

<- I would read "a <- foo" as "bind a to the value produced by foo"

[] nil as others have said (and correspondingly, : is cons)

and countless others... ::, "has type" or "is in" @ reads as "as"

I presume \, as in \a -> x, is pronounced 'lambda'. yes
