My first instinct was to pronounce jaq as "jack".
Did you watch the video? That's exactly how "Jaques" is pronounced. It's French: you ignore everything but the non-s-consonants and the first vowel.
I applaud this project's focus on correctness and efficiency, but I'd also really like a version of `jq` that's easy to understand without having to learn a whole new syntax. `jq` is a really powerful tool and `jaq` promises to be even more powerful. But, as a system administrator, most lot of the time that I'm dealing with json files, something that behaved more like grep would be sufficient.
Since JSON is JavaScript Object Notation, then an obvious non-special-snowflake language for such expressions on the CLI is JavaScript: https://fx.wtf/getting-started#json-processing

No, /dʒæk/ is not /ʒak/
Yes they're slightly different in theory, but not in any way that would prohibit mutual understanding. Besides, if you're telling anyone about this library you're most certainly going to spell it out anyways.

Have you tried `gron`? It converts your nested json into a line by line format which plays better with tools like `grep` From the project's README: ▶ gron " https://api.github.com/repos/tomnomnom/gron/commits?per_page... " | fgrep "commit.author" json[0].commit.author = {}; json[0].commit.author.date = "2016-07-02T10:51:21Z"; json[0].commit.author.email = "mail@tomnomnom.com"; json[0].commit.author.name = "Tom Hudson…

Jack and Jacques have a different "J": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Fr-Paris--Jacques.ogg
I started using yq over jq. Any significant differences?

Barely. Not enough to be a hinderance to mutual understanding.

Jack, Jaak, Jackyoo. Jay-Aye-Cue... Also not the point; Jaques is more difficult to guess the correct pronunciation of than Jaq. That's the point.
Jaques is the French spelling of Jack/Jaak/Jak/Jaq. They're all pronounced the same, modulo irrelevant differences in vowel sounds.
- No.
QED.
