Apparently we have been pronouncing GIF wrong all these years

I pronounce it Jif since the day I was born. I feel proud of myself .

a soft G, like little Wayne.

I move silently like the "G" in lasagna.

That would make it a "yif" or "nyif" file.

a soft G, like little Wayne.

I move silently like the "G" in lasagna.

But an Italian "gn" construct (like the g in lasagna is pronounced like an "y" sound (or "ny" sound as you would pronounce it in "canyon" or the spanish ñ.)

That would make it a "yif" or "nyif" file.
