MLA 怎么读

MLA 在英语中的标准读法是 「em el ay」（/ˌɛm ˌɛl ˈeɪ/）。

Multi-head Latent Attention, the DeepSeek-V2/V3 attention variant that compresses the KV cache into a latent vector. Spoken as an initialism, letter by letter: em-el-AY (STRESS on the final letter). Not pronounced as a word. Collides with other meanings of MLA (Modern Language Association, etc.), so in ML context spell it out and rely on the surrounding words Multi-head Latent Attention.

读对项目名只是工程师文化的一部分 — 但开会时被人轻轻纠正、或者在 podcast 上被嘉宾礼貌打断的滋味，并不好受。Pronounce 是一个开源的开发者词汇发音词典，每条都标注来源、信心等级，并且有预渲染的音频可以直接听。
