How to pronunce "heex"?
Hi all,
this may sounds silly, but as a non-native English speaker,
I find it difficult to pronunce the word “heex”.
Example sentence:
“We have to consider the time needed to convert old eex templates to heex”
How do you pronunce that?
Cheers!

I read heex as /hɪks/, and eex as /ɪks/.

Ouch those sounds like the same to my ears.
I could use

Ah ya in that case you could perhaps say: “We have to consider the time needed to convert the traditional templates into the component templates” and leave the matter of the actual file extension out of what gets spoken.

Maybe /hɪks/ for heex and “embedded elixir” for eex?

I recommend ⟨iːks⟩ for eex and ⟨hiː↓ks⟩ for heex, where ↓ denotes an ingressive sound (inward airstream).

It’s pronounced heeeeeeeks with an [unnecessary] apologetic inflection.

I mean, I appreciate all the phonetic symbols and tricks, but this is what I wanted
