Sorry for the relatively insignificant thread, but i really need to know how to pronounce GENTOO in order to steer clear of sounding like an idiot in casual conversation.

From the FAQ:

How is Gentoo pronounced, and what does it mean?

Gentoo is a species of small fast penguin, pronounced "jen-two".

Not really a support request.

Moving to Gentoo Chat.
