Possibly

We could have different acronym expansions for the different types.

That would be very nerdy. I'm sure the Board would approve.

editor’s nightmare? ;)

> No. The term "XEP" is normally pronounced "zepp" [6]. Oh no, I always spelled it wrong in my mind. Lucky I never had to say XEP to anyone in a vocal conversation. 🤯

I used to say x - e - p

There's also the old-school crowd who still pronounce it "Jepp" (as in, "dʒɛp")

As a german I like to say x - e - p as everything else sounds like Depp (idiot in german). 😂

I say Xep. Like Xylophon ( but never talked with someone about it)

Menel, yes that is the German pronunciation of XEP.

I used to pronounce it as "shep" until I learned initial X in English is Z 😄

So english say zylophon? Didn't know that.

In my inner speech I say "xep" like "exceed" because it's easier

Double "P" in XMPP is much heavier for me but I can say "XMP"

ksep?

Excep

Sepp?

Sepp Meier :D
