how do you say GIF out loud?
do you say jif like the peanut butter or gif with the "g" sounding like guitar? It stands for Graphics Interchange Format so I lean towards the graphics and guitar "g" sound. I've heard alot of people saying jif so was curious what most people think about it.

Rhymes with "cream," I think. At least that's how I've heard it. I'm not very good at dorkspeak.

My kids laughed at me when I pronounced it "MeMe". Yeah, "meeem", basically.

And it's Gif, with a hard "g"

I think the hard 'g' version bothers me for two reasons.

First, it started off as soft 'g' for the longest, like a decade, without question until pedants started poindextering it.

More importantly, it's too close to GILF. Sarah Palin and Christie Brinkley aside, that's ****ing disgusting.

Usually as a solution to sexual boredom.

probably, for me, since gif and jpg came to prominence around the same time.

Jiff and Jaypeg just rolls of the tongue.

Besides certain proper nouns, are there any words that start with a "G" and are pronounced with a "J"?

Why can't we just call it a "G" "I" "F" out loud?
