How do you say  "http:// "  in English. And how do you say "/" in English.

//  slash-slash

http colon slash-slash

 / reads slash? Is there another pronunciation about "/"?  And how do you say '\" in English?

Thanks.

Another expression for "/" is VIRGULE, but not so popular as SLASH.

backslash for "\".

back slash or backward slash is only used in dos I think.

forward slash is unix based, as is the internet for the most part so you see it in the address line or in the url, uniform resource locator

 so :

http colon forward slash forward slash  works for me.
