TIL Withings is french and realize the name comes from Wi-Fi and Things… And I still don't know if it should be pronounced Wee-things (Because, you know, we call it Wee-Fee here), or Why-things…
- smcl 12y agoTo me "Withings" sounded like an English surname featuring "wi" as in "with" and a voiced dental fricative "th" (like in "though"). Like "Witherspoon" or similar. It didn't even cross my mind it could by "wy-things" or "wee-things".
