Your choice of screen shot makes it look like a statement. Fortunately, you made the right choice.
The fact that the cursor points at the correct pronunciation is purely by accident.
Sure
‘g’ in ‘gin’
If you guys won’t get along we’ll have to compromise and go with the g in ‘rough’
I prefer the g in ‘though’ but not the g in ‘tough’
So, if?
Another good choice! Cheers to that!
I didn’t know that it was pronounced Jraphic design.
alright start pronouncing it jfeg and lasir
Or like the u in scuba
Fair point.
Don’t forget JRAFIK JINTERJANJE JORMAT!
The only correct pronounce
G in gnat
G as in jack
I do love grin with no r
You’re all wrong.
Gesus!
It’s a nice chord
what if its actually pronounced with the dutch g?
Is it the one where you pretend to deepthroat a frikandel?
Pretend?
Aah I see there are depths to the Dutch spirit I’ve yet to uncover. All my encounters with the Dutch have been at a pre-canal-swimming drunkenness level.
Pretend?
That was a nice read, thank you.
We’d have to remix What If Jod Was One Of Us?
Not much would change, actually. The lyrics would be pretty much the same.
I can get behind this.
Jo fuck yourself, you knew what you were doing with your example. Now I’m irrationally angry at half the people in this thread.
Man, honestly. I thought using GIF as an example would be a funny way to illustrate this genuinely cool feature. I expected some craziness but not at this level. People comment with passion, holy hell.
I just thought throwing gasoline on the fire would make it become “wet fire”, I had no idea what I was doing!
You knew what you were posting and it’s funny.
I’m literally never going to Wikipedia again because of you.
I know, I’m one of them and I don’t like it, lol.
Know what’s funnier than you doing this on purpose? You stumbling into it face first. :)
Another gift from Wikipedia.
Don’t you mean a jift?
This belongs in shitpost. Bravo on on kicking the hornet’s nest.
We should find a solution everyone will hate. I suggest no more acronym and stick to initialism.
We could start arguing about how the ‘I’ is pronounced instead of the ‘G’. I vote we shake things up and go with a long e sound.
pronounce it “tshiff”
This is about the phonetics tooltip on Wikipedia, the GIF page is just for illustration, because that’s a phonetics topic that many people know.
TIL that you can link to an image using markdown in Lemmy with this syntax:
.THE FOLLOWING IS ONLY FOR ILLUSTRATION AND NOT COMMENTARY.
G as in gif
If the entire internet was replaced with just wikipedia i don’t think I’d mind
good news! you can download the whole of wikipedia (minus the images) for a few gigs.
giggidy!
Sure, but the rest of the shithole would still be there.
Jraphical Interchange Format
Self contained uunderwater breathing ahpparatus
Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation
Every day we stray further from Jod
Uh, excuse me, “GOD” is actually an acronym for “Great Omniscient Deity”, so it’s actually pronounced /'paɪnæpl/.
I can’t read IPA, but choose to believe that’s pronounced ‘pineapple’
Thats pretty cool, thanks. I am having a hard time translating phonetic notation into sunds in my head :D
It’s a little more difficult, but if you click on the pronunciation link it gives you tables for all the sounds too.
I’ve been using this for years to learn how to pronounce things!
Me too, so this was a big revelation for me.
PNG is better
And it’s @irish_link@lemmy.world with a steel chair!
