I seem to remember Butter FS is an officially recognized way of saying it
BTR is strongly associated with APC (armoured personnel carrier) in my native languages.
То я мерздну, а то парюсь
Но машина - просто зверь

Мой граненый БТР

I personally prefer “squeal”
I always used “sequel” but I guess that’s very traditional businesspeople speak
In real life I either say “Ess-cue-ehl” (spelling it out), or I say “sqwool,” “sq” as in squirrel and “wool” like sheep wool
I always used “Ss-Quill” in class, professionally I usually refer to the database as a series of pained grunts and whimpers
I’m also in camp sequel, though I could be persuaded to camp squirrel.
If only squirrel weren’t a popular sql gui tool already.
