Aïessdiyé
/aɪˈɛsdiːeɪ/ (n.)
The sacred name of the ISDA ninjas — a name so sacred than none but an inducted member of the squad shall say it. One with learning in the ways of the Single Agreement fears the very utterance of its name, on pain of being cast for all eternity into the entropic slurry of the Iron Mountain.

The conventional and only socially acceptable way of referring to the sacred word, therefore is “izder”.
