How do you pronounce the 'g' in "gif"?
@cj it's the only one even remotely close to the correct pronunciation
@ben You mean the one I deliberately tried to omit. 🤪
@cj If I pronounce it JAHN-ruh, like JUR-af, you'd know exactly what I meant, especially in context. But isn't this a fun game we play occasionally pretending we don't know what others mean by gif/jif?
@cj > 'g' as in rough
Ah yes, I love me some fifs
@cj g as in Jif
@cj I thought it was settled long time ago!

But seems not! 😅
@robby 4 is more like 'zhif'
@cj I pronounce it like in "gorgeous".
I'm not sure if the people choosing "genre" are doing it for the "LOL vocal frictive" or because they actually mispronounce it as "jun-ruh".
