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 thought it was just “sequel”? Like that was the official pronunciation? Or is there not an accepted “official” pronunciation?

      Haha sounds like some kind of exotic spanish fashion brand. “Who am I wearing? Oh, it’s es Quaal.”
