Do y’all ponounce it as one word? Heard someone once say “c-h-own” and I was confused.
c and h in my own language (hungarian) and own in english
sounds something like
pots-café-h-father-own (random words to illustrate the way the letters are pronounced)
that’s surprisingly similarly to the german pronunciation of ch.
As far as I know most of our letters are the same.
I’m in the “c-h-own” team.
I say it like “pwn”. As in, if I’m sitting here chown-ing your shit, you’re pretty much pwned.
I deconstruct all commands when used in spoken word, so I pronounce it “change ownership”. I also call ls, “list“ and cd “change directory”. For some reason this completely confuses and disorients everyone in the room.
Do you then read ‘dd’ as ‘disk destoyer’ to send chills down people’s spines?
Gotta be verbs — Destroy Data.
I’d say change owner, but I’m with you otherwise. Although I do sometimes say change folder, old habits die hard.
I do, I tend to pronounce it rhyming with “clown”
So an /oun/ instead of an /ōn/? I hate it! :-D
Yeah the instant I wrote it I knew I’d get some comments lol. I know it’s “ch” + “own” but somewhere along the way my brain started pronouncing it rhyming with “clown” rather than “own” lol :p
I do, but that’s mostly because an old boss of mine did it, thought it was hilarious, and now I do too, because of the in joke
Chown, rhymes with bone.
Like “see-age-own”? I’d pronounce it “ch-(like in change)-own”.
Yeah. Then I think we are doing the same thing.
Yes definitely as one word like ch as in change then own, same with chroot.
change own’uh
But chroot is schrude!
I just realized I have never said this word out loud, but in my mind it sounds like “shown”
How about cmake?
where’s the “N”?
Idk how this thingy on the screenshot works 🤷
oh… it’s a game where every day there’s a 5 letter word you have to guess.
you start with a random word and it shows you if the letters are in its corect place (green), wrong place (yellow) or they don’t occur at all (gray).
then you keep on guessing until you find the word or reach the limit.
Hmm, seems like it’d be interesting to automate :D
Did it work?
nope
Bastards. You should create an issue or something
I also always start with “crane” 😁
crane and slipt… I even call it the crane-game 😂
Hahaha I also tried this for the wordle today. Glad it’s not just me.
It was a difficult wordle - I wouldn’t have figured it our without my gf.
Spoiler: It is
Tap for spoiler
Cumin
yeah it was indeed difficult to guess
You have to provide the user, group and file name as the next three guesses, just trust me!
Lemmy has many places to Wordle.
