How do you pronounce zsh? Sudo? Ssh?
(lemmy.world)
zsh: ĵ
ssh: "ssh bby is ok"
sudo: like sumo wrestling
😂 10/10 for style
sudo rhymes with judo
I've always pronounced sudo the same way that the sudo part of sudowoodo is pronounced. I actually used to think it was an obscure Pokemon reference when I first started using Linux but both Linux and sudo itself Predate Pokemon.
Chmod = Chad mod
Lol now fire ze missiles
- "zish" so it doesn't sound like "sheesh"
- ess ess aych
- sue-dough
Jif.
Z-shell sue doe S.S.H
Zsh - za-sh (like bash)
Ssh - s-s-h
Sudo - sue-do
Awk - aw-k (like the hawk but no h)
Cat - c-a-t
Chmod - ch-mod (ch like change and mod like model)
Mkdir - m-k-dir
Vim - vim
Vi - v-i
Journald - journald (like journal and the d like Harold)
Sed - sed
Man - maan
Zeesh
Sue-do
Ass-ass-hate
There is entirely too much dough in this thread (/j).
I pronounce it staccato:
s'ú . d'ó
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.

Z-shell
Having no idea what they mean, I'd go with a direct phonetic pronunciation:
- zsh = zish or zĭsh
- shh = shh, sh, or ʃ
- sudo = sü-dō or sue-dough
All of these, so far as I know, either are or evolved from Unix tools.
zsh is short for "z shell." A shell is a way to interact with a system via text - a command line interface. There are many including sh (shell), bash (Bourne again shell), fish (no idea what it stands for if anything) and others. I pronounce "zsh" as "zee shell."
ssh is short for "secure shell," a way to access systems remotely that replaced unencrypted remote access methods (hence "secure"). I pronounce this as "ess ess aitch." The last symbol you used looks like a calculus symbol to me.
sudo, depending on whom you ask, could stand for one of a few things; it was preceded by a command called "su" which stood for "super user" or "switch user" because it allowed you to imitate a user other than your own (super user being a user who has few or no permissions restrictions on a system). "sudo" is generally considered to be short for "su do" (whatever you consider "su" to mean) (ie, switch user and do or become super user and do).. I pronounce this one as "pseudo" but I didn't know what it meant when I first learned it. If I had, it's not impossible that I would pronounce it differently.
Caveat: I'm an experienced Linux user, but not an expert. All of the above is generally accurate but I suspect there are many lemmy users who would contest the details.
Hope this information helps!
edit: forgot that it was "fish," not "Phish."
How about kubectl?

I say zsh, s s h, and sudo. But I'm Finnish and we're literal folk language wise.
Ah but do you say it "Sue Doo" or "Sue dough"?
But I'm Finnish
Wait... Linus?
