The word general exists and the word gif exists so we can compare them. Try again I think you're having a completely different conversation. You haven't used one good example yet and are just proving their point more. --- https://i.imgtc.com/LnuOHap.jpg https://i.imgtc.com/zaF0ojO.jpg https://imgur.com/pqMQZyw <cite>gatorsPENSbucs posted [p:922735458] in People hav...

Were talking about different ways you can pronounce words that start with g You do realize there is more to pronunciation of a phonetic alphabet than the letter itself, right? The position of the letter and other letters around it all matter "p" is pronounced one way, "h" is pronounced another, but when you have "ph" they are pronounced in a way that sounds nothing like "p" or "h" individually or consecutively. phonetically, hard g is consistent with the remainder of the language. You don't get to invent new linguistics rules because of some loanwords that use their native phonetics. otherwise you end up with shit like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghoti --- It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha." https://imgur.com/dQgC4kv <cite>Tyranthraxus posted [p:922735485] in People hav...
