I would rather not clutter the glossary with this sort of entry. Already, it has clutter that should probably be removed so that once again it becomes a worthwhile read rather than turning into a dictionary of random terms (such as meta-path-finder, module spec, and regular-package). Instead, there should probably be a FAQ entry or wiki entry on the ever evolving spoken cultural terminology: dunder --> double underscore stir --> __str__ repper --> __repr__ rest --> .rst files or representational-state-transfer sequel -> sql gwid -> globally unique indentifier inker and decker -> incref and decef (larry hastings pronunciation)
