I’ve always been a little envious of countries that embrace the term “fortnight” instead of saying “two weeks.” Just has an air of sophistication. Can we make “zacharia” and “scarmucci” a thing in the US, to mean “five days” and “eleven days,” respectively?

As a software engineer, I see them as a potential substitute for story points. “How long will it take you to build this new feature?” “Normally a few scaramuccis, but with Claude, probably a fortzacharia. Maybe less.”
