How to Pronounce .gif

This video shows you how to pronounce .gif.

[Reflox]

In Australia we pronounce it: "OI M8 THIS FOOKN PICTOR IS FOOKN MOVENG"

[ze_rubenator]

I used to be really passionate about how you're supposed to pronounce this. Then I completely forgot which one I thought is the correct one...

[mohannadalbiltaji]

There are literally like 4 different words that he

[frogpols]

"gif"

"juh"

"if"

"jif

how did this happen

[GermaphobeMusic]

This might be the only video on this channel that's actually accurate, seeing as you can pronounce it both ways.

It's 7 in the morning and I haven't slept in a while. I'd like to point out I'm laughing my ass off at these videos

[dlira]

HA! They pronounced it both ways. I approve.

[welovemusic]

This sounds like the mixed signals I give to my crush

[spethmanjones]

I came here with a question to which I have only ever found two answers. What did I find? THOSE TWO FREAKING ANSWERS.

[rljeric]

Well, in Spanish it would be "hif".

[Terragato]

I agree. There can only be one correct pronunciation of all words. Words like route, caramel, tomato, and the list goes on. Those all only have one pronunciation, so gif should too!

[ruhtraeel]

for a second I thought they were going to say geef or something

[MineZack]

Despite literally saying it was made in 2013 in the video, it still took me forever to realize this was made 10 years ago

"It's gif!"
"No it's not, it's JIF!"
What the actual hell am i supposed to say

[kxmode]

JIF = Jiffypop Interchange Format
GIF = Graphics Interchange Format

Steve Wilhite is wrong.

[JeffKlein]

This one is actually correct because pronouncing .gif like "gift" without the t and "jiff" are actually both acceptable

*Why does this vid have 3k likes?* It doesn't even do what it's supposed to do, which is to give me _the_ pronunciation. Instead, it gives both pronunciations, the only two possible ones, which I already knew were the only options.

[MichaelMouseStar]

Steve Wilhite, who is accepting a lifetime achievement award at The Webby Awards, told the NY Times how annoyed he was at the debate over the pronunciation of GIF: “The Oxford English Dictionary accepts both pronunciations. They are wrong. It is a soft 'G, ' pronounced 'jif.'

This is the single biggest troll on this entire channel.

[SolidusDaedalus]

I'm glad that Finnish only has one sound for every letter. (spoiler alert: it's pronounced with a hard g)
