My fraturnity forced all members to learn how to recite the Greek alphabet. Skipping the beginning we get to Mew, New, Zeye, Ohm-ma-cron, pi.

In China the “X” is pronounced “sh”, thus Xi is pronounced “She”.

In the Greek alaphabet Xi is pronounced Zeye.

The dictator’s name is pronounced “Chi” while the Greek letter Xi is pronounced Ksi.
