How do you pronounce your nickname?
I'd vaguely assumed the name was Chinese, with some presupposition that you were, too.
Ksicksiduh - but I prefer to go by my real name (Alexander Kruel) when it comes to vocal communication.
I've never been Chinese. It wasn't my intention at all to sound Asiatic. I looked at an instant messenger avatar of a Rubber duck when that particular sequence occurred to me.
Thanks-- I pronounce people's names in my head when I'm reading.
"Xi" is a letter combination that shows up in English transliterations of Chinese. That, plus your saying that English isn't your first language, was what gave me the false impression.
