I kinda wish xor (pronounced "zor"?) would enter the common English lexicon. It'd be so useful to just have different words for inclusive or vs exclusive or.

I’ve always heard and said it as “ex-or.”

Ex-or makes much more sense considering it stands for EXclusive OR.

It does make sense, but I feel like it's severely lacking in the mouth feel department.

In my language you just can say ksor (ks sounds like 'x', but without 'e')

Yes but how do we pronounce xenon in your language?
