Give it time. "tracert" used to be "tray-cert" in my mind for the longest.
Its been over 20 years, lol f-stab ain't going anywhere.
Depends on the OS for me. Tracert is the way you say it, trace route is the way I say traceroute.
like the guys that say interpreter and the other guys that say interpreter
nginx, "ing - inks" I'm terrible at license plate puns, too.
I still pronounce it “n-jinx” even though I know now that’s wrong.
That's how everyone pronounces it in Russian, the native language of Igor Sysoev.
nginx rhymes with eugenics.
You're not wrong, but Jesus...
Being inside my mind is a curse, I admit. Also, I am technically wrong. According to their marketing page, it’s “engine x”.
I'm saying ‘trace-ert’ inside my mind, simply because that 's way cooler that ‘trace route’ or whatever.
