That’s why I say “dub dub dub” it confuses people and I have to explain that it’s www which is short for world wide web but I saved a little bit of time by saying dub dub dub…wait a minute…
It saves a lot of time once you have established it. You invest time when establishing it and get a fraction of it back once a mentionable amount of people know it
Dubya dubya dubya

…Double You Bee
not in my language
In Dutch www is faster. Never understood why one would give a letter a name that consists of 2 parts.
how do you pronounce Y ?
Sound like igrek.
it’s two words (“i graeca”)
We say it just like I wrote it, as one word. Although some people use Griekse IJ, which is also two words.
and how would you say xyz ?
Iks Üpsilon Zett
XIJZ.
Usually same as our compound letter “ij”, similar but not quite how you’d prononuce the word “eye”. Less commonly it’s pronounced as “i-grec” (greek i) or “ypsilon”.
i-grec (but English sound for “e” just like in Dutch) is the French way as well.
In Flanders (at least where I’m at) we usually say I grec, but when doing math or reciting the alphabet, we say IJ.
In Swedish I pronounce y as y. It has its own sound and doesn’t sound like another letter, so it can’t be written as a combination of other letters.
Üpsilon
In Irish we say “wuh”. And “punk” for dot.
Wuh wuh wuh punk lemmy punk world
Sounds like dubstep!
Irish Dubstep
Dublin-step
in Germany we say weh and punkt
veh written with english pronunciation in mind
I like the Spanish radio commercials like you’ll hear in California:
[…] PUNTO COM!!!
(website dot com and in a booming voice)
Back in the day at work we used ‘dub-dub-dub’ for www. (around 2000)
Hahahaha, love it!
i’ve often heard it called dubdubdub
By breakfast crews on crappy radio stations.
Possibly

In Dutch it’s whey-whey-whey.
I still remember when companies started mentioning their websites in commercials.
It was one big torrent of whey-whey-wheys.Same in Russian - it’s something like “wehwehweh”
Same in German.
Well, In German it’s also grammatically correct
Close to whe in when.
In Italian it’s “vuvuvu”, ez
that’s my 6th favourite thing about Italy
So the solution is very simple: everyone should become dutch
I speak Dutch but (we, in this region) don’t pronounce the y sound at the end.
wee wee wee
All the way home
Weeeee3
Not in Sweden. Veveve.
I love it and will marry it.
Dub Dub Dub.
But also, “the web.” “Online.”
“hexa-u”
“Dub dub dub”.
It has to be 30 years that I’ve been using this. I might have said the full term a couple times at the start but that quickly ended.
If you skip the “b”, you can speed it up even more with “dudududu” to include the dot.
Trip dub
I do not pronounce that part of a URL. Who still does that? Why would you need to do that?
Because
www.example.com
andexample.com
, while the same website nearly all of the time, are technically different and could point to different places.True. And there’s also the websites that use “en.” or some other language code, and “www.” just leads to the language selection.
Please, tell me more
In the same way that English Wikipedia is https://en.wikipedia.org/ and Spanish is https://es.wikipedia.org/, there is nothing stopping any website from making
www.blah.com
point to something different thanblah.com
. It’s just a convention.
Some people don’t know how to properly DNS, and IIRC some smaller DNS services don’t support CNAMEing the root.
Because it’s an artifact from a time when having a website for a business was entirely optional, and novel. This wasn’t happening everywhere.
