How to Pronounce GNOME? (CORRECTLY)
The confusion seems to be that people think I'm asking how to pronounce GNOME. I'm not. I'm asking how to pronounce Gnome, which is how it's written in Lex's product page. If it were written GNOME, I'd give it to you, but it's stupid to assume that's how you pronounce anything other than the Linux version.

Granneman π‘@Granneman I didn't ask how to pronounce GNU or GNOME, I asked how to pronounce Gnome. And there's no fucking way you pronounce the G in the normal word.
@ttscoff Oh goo no, of course not.

The Fresh Beets@ttscoff You're probably one of those people that says GIF, aren't you? π
@TheFreshBeets I definitely am.
Rob Fahrni@ttscoff For GNOME Iβve always heard it as Nome.
Liminal witch π§ββοΈ Sarah@ttscoff Iβve heard it couple of times, probably even said it too, in non-English speaking context
Dean Johnson@ttscoff As a professional software developer, who has used Gtk fulltime for nearly 30 years, I call it guh-nome, like Gnu is guh-new. @Migueldeicaza
@dtj @Migueldeicaza So do you say "garden guh nome" or do you just never say gnome outside of a Linux context?
@ttscoff @Migueldeicaza I call them βtuh-rollsβ
@ttscoff @Migueldeicaza Btw, we had dinner with Gabriel at the Happy Guh-nome
