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 just pronounce them as I should do in my native language.

    ZSH: zé-es-há /zeːɛʃhaː/

    SSH: es-es-há /ɛʃɛʃhaː/

    sudo: sudó /ʃudoː/ (with ʃ(sh) and long o at the end - this is a rule in my language, every o at the end of a word must be long, with two exceptions)

    I say them like this (in my head) even if I read english text.
