If its pronounced JIF, What does GIF stand for?
lets break this down
each letter in "GIF" stands for the first letter in what it means.
GIF stands for graphics interchange format.
we just say the first letter of each word, so we get G-I-F
The G is the graphics, so its pronounced the same as in graphics.
if it was pronounced JIF
it would be "jraphics interchange format"
And jraphics is not how graphics is pronounced.
so the only was it would be JIF is if graphics was spelled with a J
but its not, so its GIF
