Jason Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 Quote While there have been long-standing debates about the correct pronunciation of the image format, Wilhite was very clear on how he intended for it to be said. In 2013, he told The New York Times, “The Oxford English Dictionary accepts both pronunciations. They are wrong. It is a soft ‘G,’ pronounced ‘jif.’ End of story.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
