Had to double check and the guy who made the term confirmed it is pronounced like jiff
So anyone who is still using a hard G sound is wrong and can't be trusted as they lie

That doesn't mean we're wrong. Different words can have different pronunciations with the same letters. Welcome to English

Yes but only because I'm submissive and do whatever big strong men tell me to do!

Also anything weak frail men tell me to do.

I can't afford the therapy required to fix this so it's just my life

The geniuses at CE delivering this gem regarding their genuine mental gymnastics to avoid all the G words germane to the discussion.

Ladies and gentlemen, your generic generalization failed, because English as a language has a fucked-up genealogy.

Because it's supposed to be "Scubba" and "Lahser," by that logic.

"jiff" is objectively correct: The GIF89A specification says that's how you pronounce it, and the creator of the file format has repeatedly said that's how you pronounce it.
But it is subjectively wrong, because a hard G is faster to say and looks more natural for the spelling.

Its unreal to me that people see the Graphics argument, they see it get shut down every single time. Yet they continue to repeat it.

Its like imagine you go to every Harlem Globetrotters game and bet on the Washington Generals. Time and time youre going to lose and you continue to do it.

I thought the generals were due
