Bonus Quest: GIF

How do you pronounce it? Pick 1 for a hard "g" sound as in "gift" or 2 for a soft sound as in "giraffe."
 



Apparently I had never done this quest but thought I had but it’s definitely a hard g

It's an image or media, not peanut butter.

Really they just need to change it to "moving picture thing"

There's only 1 right answer and if you didn't pick this you picked the wrong one

There’s those that pick number 1 and those that are wrong.

If the creator of the GIF says it’s a soft “g”, that’s good enough for me!

It’s gif!
Was so funny on the podcast today when @dantucker had to back-track & talk about it. I was like thank-you!

It's not peanut butter. Like others have said, it's gift without the t.

The pronunciation of those specific combination of letters is already claimed by the word "gift", as used in the example. You simply remove the "t" and it's sound at the end to correctly pronounce the word gif.

I alway say gif like gift but I know it is supposed to be pronounced gif like jif. I just can’t get there.

Look, just because people don't learn to pronounce your name correctly, it doesn't change your name.

But also, I pronounce sherbet wrong.

You cannot make me choose one when both are correct!! That’s called leading the witness!

Umm… not like the D in dragon… Just sayin. 😁

You can pronounce it whatever way you want but only one way is correct.

Hard G and you'll never convince me otherwise. I don't care that "the creator of them said it's Jiff"


No.

I still remember the first time I heard someone pronounce it JIF. I was stunned.

Look, if you need to spell it differently (JIF) to explain how you pronounce it, then you pronounce it incorrectly.

In all seriousness, it’s preference….tomato, tomato.

One of my pet peeves is when someone pronounces it like the peanut butter brand 😂

I'm gonna be honest. My heart and my head differ on this one. I say hard G more than not because I deal with "GIFI's" at my work with a hard G. But I want to be a soft G person. I really want to. I choose the man I want to be, not the man I am.

It's definitely not a brand of peanut butter

I have always said it this way.

Hard G. It is gift without the T.

Just because you made something, doesn’t mean you’re right. Hard G.
