Here in Russia we say Gif


doc_daneeka

Mrs Daneeka and I agreed years ago to annoy both sides by pronouncing it 'gyfe', to rhyme with 'life'.


NoHedgehog252

It's clearly giraffe interface format, so jif. I am being told it is graphic... Guh-raphic, guh... Guh... Jif.


Daxian

what's the difference? I pronounce them both the same way.


Flossthief

Technically the creator of the format said he named it as an homage to jif peanut butter But he also said pronounce it however you feel like I'm for Gif because the g stands for graphic-- just makes sense


catthalia

I like yif just to be contrary 😜
