No. The best way to pronouncethe slanted bar is "over".
So you say "TCP over IP"
Notice that we also many times have UDP/IP
If you what to know what al the letters are it is "Transaction Control
Protocol over Internetwork Protocol"
TCP is a way to ensure a packet gets to an end point and in the same
order they were sent. "IP" is a way to move packets. TCP makes use
of I to send packets.
"UDP" is User Datagram Protocol and it also use IP.
In turn IP can run over any number of physical networks like Ethernet,
WiFi X25, or ISDN.
