How do you pronounce zsh? Sudo? Ssh? (lemmy.world)

Ok, going for full controversy here. zsh = "zoosh" ssh = "shoosh" sudo = sue-dough

Before you achktually me, I know it's supposed to be "sue-DO", because the acronym stands for "superuser do", but for the life of me, when I see those letters together it just seems wrong to pronounce it that way.

I say zsh, s s h, and sudo. But I'm Finnish and we're literal folk language wise.

Ah but do you say it "Sue Doo" or "Sue dough"?

But I'm Finnish

At work we all pronounce zsh “zish” like dish but with a z.

sudo is sue-doo, not sue-dough or pseudo

SSH is just s-s-h
