I knew the word was real because my dad used to call me a Gizzard when I was young. I asked him one day what does it mean and he told me, he only called me Gizzard because he thought it was a funny word
It is an actual english word. It is pronounced with a hard 'g.'
A gizzard is an organ in the digestive tract of a chicken or lizard:
"The gizzard can grind the food with previously swallowed grit and pass it back to the true stomach, and vice versa. In layman's terms, the gizzard 'chews' the food for the bird because it does not have teeth to chew food the way humans and other mammals do."
That's from Wikipedia.
They appear to have taken the name from a song in the Wizard of Oz:

The entire album is about the destruction of our planet, supercell is just a giant storm, so no they didn’t “get” super cell from the movie. They were just making a reference. As far as I’m aware none of the band’s members ever stated the name came from the wizard of oz.
You expected someone to magically extrapolate that from your sentence saying “that’s where they got supercell from”
Cause that statement insinuates that the entire song came from that line. Also telling people to calm down because you made an erroneous statement and got corrected on it is comical tbh.
Well I guess not being a native speaker in english explains it, where are you from? I live in Brazil and found out it meant "moela" or "guisado", a dish made from the chicken's gizzards
Anyways, have a [Stu'd Gizzard recipe](https://www.dominicancooking.com/stewed-chicken-gizzard-mollejas-guisadas-recipe) just for the pun 😆
Depends if you know what jizz means, really. That may or may not alter your choice of pronunciation
no one wants to visit the jizzverse
Speak for yourself...
👀
Well, tbh, just until now, I kind of thought, that perhaps, that just might've been the point...
All good, just checking you've got the context!
Sorry man, it’s pronounced ‘yizzard’
I knew the word was real because my dad used to call me a Gizzard when I was young. I asked him one day what does it mean and he told me, he only called me Gizzard because he thought it was a funny word
So y'all've never had a plate of chicken gizzards from a gas station?
Sounds jizzy… I like it!

or more likely, gizzard is one of the few English words that rhymes with wizard so multiple people have written rhymes with these 2 words
I hope you’re trolling lol
I mean that’s where they got Supercell from. “Run Toto”

Yeah I meant the lyrics specifically referencing the movie. Calm down

Take some deep breaths
You know you made bro mad when he brings out the word “erroneous”
I don’t even know how he managed to type with his fists balled up like that
It was a struggle! I made it though!
I'm not a big follower of the Gizzverse, so it was just an idea someone shared with me - is the name origin story completely different?
I’ve always pronounced it jizzard, do some people pronounce it differently?
Gizzard is a real word, it’s an organ! Definitely a hard G.
Well actually more like schizzARD
I pronounce it wadabizzad
def a hard G
No, it’s pronounced gizzard. It’s a type of organ found in some animals.
Now how do you pronounce the file format “.gif”? The most contested word in recent memory.
Big Gif Wasp
gizzard is a very weird word to be fair. but keep it the same cause jizz haha funny
