It's Zed-Ecks
Not Zee-Ecks

Depends on which country you are in, and which language you are speaking, Fucktard.

Zee-Ecks just doesn't sound right

I just call it the spectrum because it's what you're on if you care about this autistic horseshit

How do you pronounce its CPU?

Speh-key

>>11847175
I will only respect this rule when sissy Europeans stop spelling it "Pearl Harbour". Until then, it's Zee Ecks.

>>11847175
Every country outside of the US says some variation of Zed or Zeta. Zeta is the Greek letter of course.

>>11847439
Canada is a mixed bag. Some say Zee, others Zed. On a similar note, I've never heard anyone in Canada say the word Zebra the non-American way, even if they pronounce the letter as zed.

Do you think many people in Gen Zed listen to bands like Zed Zed Top? Or are they more into music like Jay Zed? I know Dragon Ball Zed is still pretty popular with them.

Proper nouns. They should be prounounced as intended by the namer. As with the ZX Spectrum, whose creator and namer was English.

>>11847919
>>Dragon Ball Zed
>Correct
Incorrect, the Z is either Zetto for the Japanese version or Zee for the English version.

LUV ME ZEDDY
SIMPLE AS

>>11848113
The Z in ZX comes from the Z80 processor, pronounced "zee-eighty" since it was an American invention.

>>11848141
the inventor of the speccy says otherwise
https://youtube.com/shorts/GcS4qpsJ8OY?feature=shared

>>11848141
Irrelevant. It doesn't matter where he got the name from, only what he called it.

>>11848145
>>11848153
I see no reason to respect his pronunciation when he saw no need to respect the creator of the Z80's to begin with. Zee-ecks it is.

>>11848168
>the creator of the Z80's
the creator doesn't own the English language. nor did he invent the letter "Z"

As an ESL, American Z sounds exactly like C to me.

>>11848140
this guy has since turned it around and lost a lot of weight. you can reverse image search the original pic to find an article about it

>Irrelevant. It doesn't matter where he got the name from, only what he called it.
It was called the "zee-eighty" in America, where it was invented, so Sinclair should have said the same. He didn't, he preferred his own pronunciation, so I'll do the same for his invention. Zee-ecks Spectrum.

disappointingly, still inb4 speculum

Are y'all actual kids or what?

>>11848173
Close your teeth and vibrate your tounge when you try to say cee, you'll notice the difference

>>11848213
>vibrate your tounge
How do you vibrate your tongue?
Is that some advanced cocksucker skill?

>>11847242
lol'd

>>11848173

I can't think of what brown shithole you come from that Z is the same sound of C but the British Empire didn't beat you hard enough clearly.

No seriously, where?

>>11848226
Have you never heard a German talk English?

>>11848138
Everyone in Australia calls it Dragon Ball Zed.

Do British people call it New Zedland?

>>11848240
Is it spelled Z-land?

Sweet.
A Z thread.

A more pertinent point - Z is a fake letter that has no business existing in modern English.

>>11848283
Get rid of "c" too, replase it with k and s

>>11848285
No, only Z goes. 25 letters is gematrically proper. 2 represents the division of creation, heaven and earth, before and after, life and death. 5 represents the five fingers of man and the name of G*d. Their sum is 7, representing perfection and emanations of existence.

>>11848226
nta but I think all the scandi languages lack the voiced Z-sound, there's just the voiceless S (the letter Z exists for some loan words but it's just pronounced the same as S)

>>11848240
Do you think words are spoken by sounding out each letter in turn?

Zeks Spek

>>11848339
They actually are in lots of languages, English has weird spelling that often doesn't correspond with how a word is actually pronounced. Spelling Bees only exist in English because it's too easy to figure how a word is spelled just by sounding it out in most other languages.

Zed-em-up Ecks Specker

>>11848331
Danefag here and you're correct, in our languages S is always voiceless, voiceless alveolar sibilant to be precise. And Z only appears in loan words, we pronounce that letter like you pronounce the English word "set". But of course we still can hear the difference in English, gotta be brain damaged if you can't.

You don't have to worry about it OP. No one outside of your little country is pronouncing that at all.

>>11848379
Bullshit. You're conflating the name of the letter with the sound it represents. They're the same thing in Japanese kana, but not in any European languages I'm aware of. And even if they were you know full well we're talking about English, so it'd still be irrelevant nonsense.

It's pronounced twenty forty-eight, bongs.

>>11847165 (OP)
This weird sense of superiority Euros have over minor things pisses of Americans.

Zed Vs. Spectrum

It pisses off the autists of 4chan. Normie Americans being told this would be like, "ah, I see" and then promptly forget about it.

>>11848528

would rather do a swan dive off the roof of my house than type on one of those. is the timex version plastic keys or rubber? if plastic it'd be a slight improvement but still feel like beating on a 1970s calculator. it's no wonder software developers back then use other better computers to program these things.

>>11848496
It's more of an American confusion thing, anything different makes them confused and then upset as they feel left out. They are the same type of people that go into threads they don't like to get mad at things they don't care for, maybe because it killed a thread they liked but didn't bump.

People (largely Americans themselves) noticed that and just started baiting and falseflagging with clear success for years now.

>>11848501
That should be Zedecks Vs. Spectrum
