Can I just say how dumb 4xe sounds? I mean really I know they mean it "Four by E" like "Four by Four" (4x4) but with electric motors but seriously I just looks like "Four X Eee" to my eyes and I can't help to think how dumb it sounds. I would never buy one just for that reason.
I think it's pronounced "fork-see".

Kind of like how in lumber terms, a 2x4 is pronounced "tuba-for"

I'm fairly confident that the "x" is supposed to be pronounced as "by".
Oh, no. I prefer it's full name: Xitter. Or the site formerly known as Twitter. Or is twat the past tense of twit? Twatter... that's definitely correct.

No, it's just a symbol. No pronunciation.

Side note - wouldn't the past-tense of "Twitter" be "Twitted"?

Ah yes... of course. It's French. The X is silent.

Twitting: the act of being on Twitter

If the writer wrote, did the twitter twote?

Twoter. Or is pronounced like 2-ter? That would make sense for Twitter two.
