People seem to be settling on calling Elon Musk's social media dumpster fire "Xitter". I study classical Nahuatl, the language of the Aztecs, and in the Spanish transliteration of that language, "x" is pronounced "sh" (so e.g. "xochitl" is approximately "SHOH-cheet"). It seems to me that this pronunciation is quite appropriate for use in "Xitter". Tezcatlipoca would approve. 🙃
