This may be a dumb question, but I've always wondered if I've been pronouncing his name correctly all these years. Is it pronounced the way it appears to be spelled, "god-bought" or does it come from a language where the 't' would be silent or some other variation?
I've wondered this myself. I've always pronounced it "god-bowt", with the second syllable rhyming with "out", but I've never been sure.
For anybody still wondering, they pronounce it that way in the Computer Chronicles episode on YouTube. Bill S. --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus
