@Vordus@chitter.xyz honest question: what does the 11 in the word stand for? how on earth am I supposed to read the numbers inside a word? It always reminds me of Se7en which I always read se-seven-en.

    @nicemicro@fosstodon.org @Vordus@chitter.xyz The straight answer is that it's the number of letters between the "a" and the "y", not counting the endpoints. But I agree it's ridiculous.

  • @nicemicro@fosstodon.org @Vordus@chitter.xyz it means there are 11 letters between the 'a' and the 'y'. Like k8s for kubernetes and i18n for internationalization.
