1. '\0'

2. '\n', '\a', '\b', '\f', etc.

My pronunciations: "backslash 0", "backslash n", etc.

3. NULL, nul (how to distinguish these two?)

"null", and i assume you mean "ascii nul"

4. char (3 possible ways I've heard are 4a) like the 1st syllable in
"character", 4b) like "char coal", and 4c) like "car"

"char" (as in charcoal)

5. Motif (like "motive" or more like the French word?)

mow teef

6. x = y, x == y (how to distinguish these two?)

"x equals y" for both, context sufficient to disambiguate.
(If unclear, "x single equals y" and "x double equals y")

7. ++x, x++, x += n

"plus plus x", "x plus plus", "x plus equals n"

8. argc, argv

"arg-see", "arg-vee"
