[–] zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 months ago (7 children) Lots of people do, and it makes no sense. How do you pronounce "J"? How do you pronounce "son"? Now put them together. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 7 child comments replies: [–] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 11 points 6 months ago (4 children) Oh I get it! How do you pronounce "e"? How do you pronounce "yes"? Now put them together for "eyes"! permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 2 points 5 months ago (1 child) Sure, that explains why people pronounce it that way now. What I'm wondering is why people started pronouncing it that way in the first place. When I see the letters JSON, my brain parses it as J-SON. It's even a common first name ffs. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 1 point 5 months ago* I couldn't say. There is an older guy in my group who calls it "Jason". Also we have 2 guys on my team named Jason and the back end jason now goes by J-Sahn. I have always read it j sahn and I have no idea why. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Gumus@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 point 5 months ago Legendary permalink fedilink source parent [–] unwarlikeExtortion@lemmy.ml 0 points 5 months ago So, how do you say "J" then? "ᒋ"? permalink fedilink source parent [–] Quibblekrust 2 points 5 months ago* (1 child) LOL! I wouldn't pronounce "J son" like Jason, either! "Son" is pronounced "sun". Jason is pronounced Jay-sin. Also, I've had coworkers named Jason, and I want to be able to say "Use JSON" without it sounding like I'm saying "Use Jason". permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 1 point 5 months ago You sound like a fun person to work with. permalink fedilink source parent
