whichever way pisses off the most people
watch me pronounce it /χäɪf/ (“hyfe”)
Isn’t that one of Elon Muskrat’s kids?
When I want to be annoying (and when the people I’m talking to are aware of furries), I pronounce it ‘yiff’
Jraphic interface format really sounds right /s
Right, because Gs are never pronounced with a “J” sound, and acronyms are never pronounced differently than their full terms. Sound logic there; well done. Never mind any of these:
NASA- National Aeronautics Space Uhdministration
NATO- North Ayy-tlantic Treaty Organization
LASER- Light Ayy-mplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation
SCUBA- Self Contained Oonderwater Breathing Uhpparatus
FOMO- Fear ohhf missing ohht
ASAP- Ayys soon ayys possible
POC- People ohhf solor
PIN- Personal id-entification number
BOGO- Buy ohhn get ohhn
POTUS- President ohhf the Uhhnited States
YOLO- You only live ohhnce
AWOL- Ayy-bsent without awfficial leave
ICE- Eyemmigration and Sustoms Enforcement
DARE- Drug Ayybuse Resistance Education
National Aeronautics and Space Uhdministration /s
Light aimplification by ztimulated emission of radiation just has a nice ring to it /s
I believe that’s “uhmission”
You are correct, my apologies
“The correct way, of course.”
I was devastated to learn the creators intended it to be pronounced “jif” like the peanut butter brand
Yeah, because it’s a jraphical interface format.
So do you say j-feg? Because the p stands for photographic
Giraffical
One of the few times I don’t care what the creator says, he was wrong.
And yet your mind knows it’s not possible for him to be wrong since he named it.
Me too. I feel like no one pronounced it jif before they said that, and now we have to have an eternal debate over it
Hard G. It’s “Graphics Interchange Format”, not “Jraphics Interchange Format”.

Some say gif, others say gif. The people saying gif are correct.
Is there a prequels meme community on lemmy?
