  I’ve been spelling it “xitter” and using the sh sound for the xi part of the name when pronouncing it.

  So then the new word for "tweets" would be "tents"?

    ‘Retent’ actually sounds pretty cool. It ‘retains’ the visibility of the ‘Tent’ by ‘Tenting’ it again…

    …Yeah that’s still never getting anywhere nearly as iconic as a tweet.

      Elon wants them referred to as Xeets and most people pronounce an x with an sh sound. So I believe they must be pronounced as “Sheets” and therefore we all need to argue if “Tweeted” should be “Sheeted” or if it should be “Shat”, and if a retweet is a “ReShat” or a “ReShit”.

  In medieval Spanish, x means “ah” so “shitter” would be funny

  source

  • Diprount_Tomato@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    Nope, medieval Spanish X is “kh” that’s why Mexico is actually pronounced Mekhico

      My phone autocorrected “sh” to “ah”

  You know the site is shit when all you do is constantly mention the previous one you inhabited while secretly longning to go back, but you can’t because of “principles”. It’s gotta suck. Eventually they’ll all be “back” to Twitter. Quotation marks because most of those people are still at least lurking on Twitter.
