< has seen a post on Tumblr explaining the "xe" and "xem" pronouns. Just imagine the x's as z's. So "xe" would be pronounced zee and "xem" as zem.

X has always been pronounced with a z sound in most words that start with x. Like xylophone.

< would pronounce 'xe' like 'zjee', almost like it were Chinese.

But if we're talking English pronunciation... it might as well be pronounced [boing] - who's gonna be the wiser?

< just noticed < got a most generous donation from Fifo. < would like to thank Fifo for his most generous donation to me. Thank you, Fifo, for this most generous donation to my Ting count.

< wonders what the hell this poll is doing on this topic.
< thinks the stories of the pronunciation of x and y are tragic and fascinating.

< thinks you've mixed up the minus and less than signs in that post.
< doesn't really know what to say about your fanfic apart from that.

< says the word is "written". < thinks it could certainly be better formatted, to say the least. It still had the intended impact, but it seems very rushed. < is not really one to give advice on this though, < has never exactly been a good story writer himself.
