Unpopular opinion: gif is pronounced JIF
y'know what, i pronounced it jif for the longest time and was adamant about it. i always thought the arguments coming from "well you don't say jraphics" were dumb because that's not how acronyms work. also, i know that the people who came up with the word gif pronounced it jif. i only finally came over to the hard g side because of the popular usage argument. language evolves and definitions/pronunciations are updated to reflect popular usage. a large majority of people seem to pronounce it with the hard g, so i guess that's that. 🤷
send me controversial or unpopular opinions and I'll tell you if I agree or disagree 🐸 ☕️
