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.
Zed-shell, soo-dough, s-s-h
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.”)
For me, zsh is pronounced “bash.”
(One-upping your “full controversy,” LOL)
For ZSH and SSH I just speak the letters: Z-S-H, S-S-H. Sudo as “SUE-do” “SUE-doo”.
One I wonder about is xrandr. I say “EKS-rand-ur”, have heard others say “eks-R-and-R”.
edit: for sudo long vowel. Also I tend to stress the H in ZSH and SSH.
zsh: “Z shell”
ssh: S-S-H
sudo: I always think of it as “pseudo”
