> As pronounced in our office, ...

OUR office practices promouncing, too:

"vi" can be heard in various flavours: vee-eye, of course,
and new are two versions with national Aussprache: fow-eeh, Vee

The at-sign '@' is called "spider-monkey" due to its appearing,

BUT... since we are in Germany, we say "Klammeraffe" wich sometimes
will be abbreviated (okay: 'coded') as "Klaffe". [Sounds like "cluffe!"]

White space in command lines is pronounced as "Loch!" (hole),
the return key at the and of a command listens to the name "Zack!"
