Reminds me of "L‘mao" and "C‘tryl“
The ancient Arcadians actually pronounced it .flif
I didn't know about the wrong way to say it until that LOTR meme.
Classic
Hard G. It's “Graphics Interchange Format”, not “Jraphics Interchange Format”.
Try to pronounce the letter G. What does it sound like? Hard or soft G?
Now, while pronouncing "G", close your lips to make the sound "G-if".
There you have it, how to pronounce "Gif".
Ps: honestly, That just popped up in my head a moment ago and I'm just trying to troll, wholeheartedly I believe it is hard-G as in Graphics.

According to wikipedia the phonetic usage includes:
[g]
[d͡ʒ]
[ʒ]
[ŋ]
[j]
[ɣ~ʝ]
[x~χ]
[d͡z]
[ɟ]
[k]
[ɠ]
[ɢ]
/dʒiː/
For English pronunciation it lists:
/dʒ/
/ɡ/
/ʒ/ and
silent
Does that mean you also pronounce scuba sku•ba instead of skoo•bah? Because that U stands for Underwater not OOnderwater. And what about Jpeg? Shouldn't it be Jeg because the P in photographic is silent.
Or jfeg because photography has an f sound.
It's soft g gif. Because the original joke was choosy moms choose jif, and choosy web developers choose gif.
It's "dot Ge I Ef"
