Just curious of how everyone says it . I have heard ten-jen, tang-en, ten-jen, and a few others, but what is the correct way?

It's Ten-gen with a hard 'g' as in 'get'.
Like 'Atari,' it's a word used in the game of go.

Looks like I've been pronouncing it right (ten-gen with a hard g).

Ten-Jen sounds so much cooler.

Yep, that's the ticket.
