Question #176217 on Sikuli changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/sikuli/+question/176217

    Status: Open => Answered

RaiMan proposed the following answer:
--- from a paper about the plans with Sikuli Script at MIT CSAIL (the
"home" of the developers)

In the Wixarica language of Mexico's Huichol Indians, Sikuli literally
means "God's eye." It's a tribute to the tool's all-seeing approach to
computer vision.

So you might evaluate, how the Huichol's pronounce(d) it ;-)

--- ... but the in "official" videos on youtube you can hear, that the
developers pronounce it

sik - uh - li

- where the two i's are pronounced like in video (means shortly spoken)
- with the emphasis on the 2nd syllable, which might sound a little bit like the word you

--- this is the result of a short google research, made by a german
Sikuli user, that does not speak native english nor american language -
so be careful with it - no guarantee - use at your own risk ;-)
