    The greek χ should be a “ch” sound like “Bach” or “Loch”. And if you copy that last character from the project page or anything it’s definitely an X, not a χ.

        Meh, it’s pronounced Latex. I’ve chosen my hill to die on. Pretending it’s a “k” or “ch” sound is dumb.

            Yeah, but I prefer to pronounce latex properly, just like the rubber.

                Nah, just LaTeX, the typesetting system. The one named entirely in characters from the English alphabet, named after the polymer emulsion.
