So despite the fact many say rooter, there’s a mix of pronunciations, and personally I go with the US version when talking about network stuff just to avoid the sound of thethe word and the potential connotations here (2/2)

@caseyliss It’s both a little funnier and a little more confusing as an Australian. We share much in common for pronunciation with the UK, unsurprising. But we have, historically at least, also used “root” as an alternate, more ok to say in public, equivalent to “fuck”. i.e. “get rooted”, “it’s rooted”, etc. (1/2)
