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.

    Zush rhymes with kush in my head. But out loud I say the letters because I think zush probably isn’t how you’re supposed to say it

    Soo-dough (dough like the stuff you knead)

    Es-es-aych

    Oh also, I’ve found myself pronouncing the normal English word “gnome” as “guh nome” now because that’s how the DE is pronounced lol
