That is no more a problem than the fact that there is no mnemonic to remind you what "chaos" means in English. Shortcuts are there to be convenient to use, not convenient to describe.
- dotancohen 7mo agoI don't know much Greek, but I can hold a conversation. χάος is clearly the word Chaos is derived from - it means disorder. Just like LibreOffice keyboard shortcuts, many languages do in fact base their words on similar sounding words.
