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.

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

Ksenon. (I need to correct myself for the comparison, see above)
