I like the software, so I’ll overlook it’s shady deeds.
It’s in their FAQ 🙂
Thanks for this. I should have known it’d be somewhere like that.
Oh wow, they have an audio sample and everything! Looks like it’s “for jeo” (pronounced like “Mateo”)
I feel like if you need an audio sample to get people to pronounce your name correctly, you should just name it something else…
Aka, pretend it’s Spanish, since it’s a word from pretend Spanish (specifically Esperanto, not Portuguese)
I enjoy how there’s the correct answer, and then there’s the other answers in this thread. 🙃
“For Joe”
who’s joe?

I say forge yo
Forge Joe is how I pronounce it.
How many jay-o’s?

Never knew about Esperanto, but that was fun to learn about.
It can still be pretty Euro-centric but it’s awesome to be able to communicate with people from any number of countries at the same time.
Just like hotkinkyjo
Damn, didn’t know he was all kinky like that
For-jay-ho
For-gay-ho (Spanish)

I keep reading it as “four-gee-joe”, but I’m pretty sure that is not the right pronounciation.
As a speaker of Esperanto, I believe they used the Esperanto for the noun “forge” which is spelled ‘forĝejo’ with a facy-pants g-circumflex.
In Esperanto, the G with a hat is pronounced like the soft G in forge. The J is pronounced like the letter Y, like in the English word fjord.
So, I don’t know if the makers of the tool intended the Esperanto pronunciation to be used. But if it is, the pronunciation would be like forge-AY-o.
Its named after the Esperanto word, but the intended pronunciation is for-JAY-oh.

Ay yo!
Nice keyboard
Thanks. It’s the only swipe enabled keyboard I’ve found for my degoogled phone. They have their own F-Droid repo as well
