@shantini It took me way to long to figure out what any of this meant. 🤦‍♂️

@sommer @pixel this is VERY interesting.

@shantini @sommer I’ve gone back and forth over the years, but have settled on e-noom as the one true way… Enumeration isn’t pronounced E-nuhm-er-ation!

@pixel @sommer how do you pronounce “spec” vs how you pronounce “specification”? The abbreviation does not always follow the full thing

@shantini @pixel @sommer The G in GIF stands for graphics but we all know the right pronunciation is with a hard G ;)

@a2 @shantini @pixel I’m realizing via this convo that I have no strong opinions about how words are pronounced…

@sommer @a2 @shantini I don't either, really. Everyone pronounces everything a bit different whether it's if individual letters are soft or hard, or what syllable the emphasis is on. Just so the audience understands, it doesn't really matter to me, I was just stirring the pot 😜

(Eric whispers: It’s still e-noom though.)
