The correct way to pronounce it is ʒaJf and not GIF or JIF

Say that to the guy that invented the dammed thing.

I consider anyone who says jiff instead of gif a fucking retard born on or after 2000 and the ones that are older are huge hipsters pieces of shit that bought a mac opened a terminal and think they are hackers. All those faggots follow klossy because they want to learn to code and computer stuff.

True, and the people who pronounce it "gif" are morons

just keep using the "right" pronunciation. The rest needs easy ways to spot and target dumb shits, specially on job interviews when you are just nitpicking from the bunch.

You're the one that's getting all butthurt about the way someone else pronounces an abbreviation.
But just keep talking reddit.

nice fallacy to deviate from the fact that you are wrong. Also I encourage you to keep using whatever you feel is right.

I bet you're one of these brainlets who pronounce it "gif" (or "jif")

>Say that to the guy that invented the dammed thing.
Nobody cares.

The guys developing SCSI wanted it to be pronounced "sexy".
Luckily everyone just ignored them.

>jaypheg

Damn, beat me to it

Who cares

at least is less gross than seeing a bunch of cockroaches or other weird shit getting nervous and scattering away.

my point exactly. Most of the nu-fags defending the whole jif abortion based their defense on just that. Menawhile it's been more than 20 years that eveyrone using it was saying gif.

Giraffe is pronounced with a "J" sound. So is gif. Deal with it fags.

Maybe most people are just brainlets.

You don't know a single thing about linguistics, do you?

nice, if you are driving your car and everyone is driving the wrong way on that street for the past 30 years you are right and everyone else is wrong. Your life sounds fun if you apply that to everything else.

If we listened to the people who invent shit, we wouldn't be using PHP and Linux would have stayed a little unportable hobby project.

>what is a soft s
It's Laэer, not Lacer.

Well, technically it's L.A.S.E.R. anyway.

Yes, because that was the best analogy for language.

As long as words are understood, there is no point in a unified pronunciation. If I go from New York to Biloxi Mississippi, their accents will pronounce many words differently, but I understand it the same. There is no right/wrong way in natural language so long as other people understand you, it's why the English language has evolved to this point instead of remaining some ungodly germanic shit.

My point is pronunciation of acronyms don't always follow the words that make them up

I'm gonna stop posting here anyways because I don't want to get into an argument about meaningless shit

So you think you will be understood when you go get some SCSI (sexy) drives?
Also who the fuck cares about the english language, how the fuck do you think everyone else in the rest of the planet calls it?
How do you pronounce SATA? Because the As are not the same everywhere.

Graphs.

>I don't want to get into an argument about meaningless shit

I call it "Scuzzy". But then again, I was also born in the 70s, so I probably pronounce a lot of things the "old way".

ZEE ECKS SPECTRUM
>This triggers Europoor

Not him. I say it like SANTA without the N. Even if I say it wrong to someone who calls it another way, he'll know what I meant because usually when you mention something it's in context to a recent discussion. That's actually how Japanese can understand each other given their abnormally high ratio of homophones.

So yes, you will be understood regardless of whether or not you perfectly pronounce something, it only matters that it's good enough to provide a background for your receiver to make an inference on what you meant. If they are not confident on their interpretation you will get asked to clarify, because that's how people talk most of the time.

>tfw your language is not retarded so this isn't even a controversy

>one developer of SCSI wanted it to be pronounced 'sexy'

fuck you, I'm going to use set of png's played trought javascript, it's way more easier to pronounce overkill than gif

It's not "gif" or "jif"
It's "dead and obsolete format"

>calls people morons for pronouncing the word a certain way
>spells the word correctly to indicate said pronunciation
??? ??

It's actually pronounced 'YIF'.
