Again, "gift" is the only thing we can use. That's if there wasn't a fucking creator who straight up told you how it's pronounced. I don't know why the argument never stops dead right there. There's no rule against his pronunciation, so it passes and is good to go. It would be different if he wanted the pronunciation to be something completely off base like "gaflarbendooble", but "jif" is totally a way to pronounce "gif" with English rules. --- SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SlG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SIG SlG <cite>weapon_d00d816 posted [p:884210747] in Reminder t...
