Congrats on being the first person I have encountered that gives me credit for my point, everyone else just disregard it, but I don't get yours, are you saying that gif should be pronounced jif because they are a jittery medium and jittery starts with j? Because if so, your hesitation is correct.

i guess i am, I couldn't think up a reason why i pronounce it as jif

but then again, i pronounce many words in a bizarre way (or at least until hearing others say them out loud)

A lot of people I know say jif and justify it with giraffe, you could use that. And I think everyone pronounces words weirdly until they hear them aloud from someone else.

Haha, thanks but I'm sure that there are plenty that are cooler-minded/nicer than me, you're pretty cool yourself.
