Remember that sudo allows a permitted user to execute a command as the
superuser or *another user*
So you don't have to become superuser - you can become 'fred' or 'dunedin'.
Just like the su command means 'switch user'. (Not superuser)

BTW I have heard both soo-dough and soo-doo 50/50.

Today I came across a reminder of the meaning of "sudo"

So how should it be pronounced?
soo-doo or soo-dough
Is that your answer, your guess or your preference?
