I've always pronounce it like "link", but I also heard people pronounce it "Lin-Q". I am really curious whcih one is correct.

+7  A: 

Both are correct!

Generally people call it "link", but some do call it "link u"(Lin-Q)

Similar to Moq, which is called "mock" and some also call it "mock u"(mo-Q)

Caveat: As one of my friend says, please don't extrapolate this to FAQ ;)

it's just a play of words on "link", but people with native languages derived from latin will pronounce it instinctively as Lin-Q
