If you don&#x27;t pronounce &quot;printf&quot; as &quot;print-F&quot; but closer to &#x2F;&#x27;print(h)f&#x2F; it <i>kinda</i> sounds like someone saying &quot;prince&quot; with a lisp (or with a local anaesthetic impairing the range of movement of their tongue).<p>I think Northern European languages like Dutch, Swedish or maybe even Polish might have a word which could better describe the sound? I can&#x27;t think of any Croatian words that get close to it.
