Re: The You Game!
< 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.

Re: The You Game!
X has always been pronounced with a z sound in most words that start with x. Like xylophone.
Re: The You Game!
< totally forgot about xylophone.

Ah, < gets it now!

Re: The You Game!
< 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?

Re: The You Game!
< 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.
