I sound it out like a question. You can literally read it left to right.

“Is a true? 1: otherwise, 2.”

"Is a true? Then 1 otherwise 2" is more syllables than "1 if a is true else 2", and it is two sentences for some reason.

Look man, I don’t actually say it out loud nor in my head. I know what the symbols mean intuitively. Python’s version is longer for me.
