Are there pronounceable names for common Haskell operators? [closed]

I’m reading Learn You a Haskell for Great Good, and I never know how to pronounce the Haskell operators. Do they have “real” names? ?

For instance, how do you read aloud an expression like this one?

Just (+3) <*> Just 9

I know that >>= is “bind”, but what about the others? Since Google doesn’t take non-alphanumeric characters into account, it’s kind of hard to do an efficient search…

I realize you can create your own operators, so of course not all operators can have names, but I expect that the common ones (e.g. those defined in Applicative or Monad) must have names…
