How do you pronounce zsh? Sudo? Ssh?

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.

Codilingus ,

Chmod = Chad mod

Zeesh. Rhymes with sheesh!

I say “zeesh”. Like “sheesh” with a z.

As a former IT guy, I got used to just saying “secure shell” every time I saw SSH, to help teach my younger IT folks the lingo. I don’t even say the acronym anymore. When I did, I just spoke the letters (es-es-aich).

Same for ZSH; I just call it Z-Shell (zee-shell).

Sudo has always been “soo-doh” (or “sue-dough” as OP spelled it; same pronunciation). I’ve never met anyone who pronounced it differently in my 20 years of IT work.

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

When I first saw sudo I assumed it was pronounced “pseudo” because it lets you fake like you’re doing stuff as another user. So that has stuck for me. (And despite all evidence, I still low-key believe it’s a clever pun encompassing both that and the official “superuser do.”)

aStonedSanta ,

Yeah. I totally thought this too. That’s why I was stubborn about it. 🙄.

On a more serious note. I love this lol.
