Wait, what?
MATE and GNOME are already words, wouldn't it make sense to pronounce them as the words?
>>61888920
but it is mahtay
>>61888920
GNOME is "guh-nome" because GNU is "guhnoo"

So do you call these guys garden guh-nomes, you idiots? It's pronounced NOME, and MATE is pronounced like the word that it fucking is!!!! If you pronounce them any other way you are autistic.

MATE is pronounced mah-tay only because it origins from the fucking yerba mate, it is pronounced "like the word that it fucking is" which is the goddamn beverage, from which it gets all the green ugly themes and generic cancers that mate users and drinkers encounter. kys for killing an cancer thread for another more cancerous thread.

even worse is when people say "gooey" instead of GUI
Pretty sure it's supposed to be pronounced maté (ma-tay). Pic related.
