At least it’s pronounceable and “photoshop” and “illustrator” are pretty self-explanatory. Acrobat isn’t I’ll grant.

Do you buy cars at the autoshop? Or buy lumber at the woodshop?

The photoshop is where you work on pictures. If you shopped there, it would be a photostore.

Just an FYI, outside of North America, the only shop specifically for work is a workshop. We would go to a auto workshop or a wood workshop. For Aussies or Brits a shop is equivalent to a store (often a small one). And yes go shopping at a shop or a store, you don't usual go storing at a store, unless it's like a grain store or a data store.

At this point it is a term so used, any previous meaning has been replaced.

It is even used as a verb for 'generic photography edition'.

I wouldn't call Adobe pronounceable, most people I know call it "a doab."

If they know what adobe is it's perfectly pronounceable.

He missed a comma:

you might be thinking about it wrong. maybe it's named after the number of hoops you have to jump through in order to make things
