The letter G is obviously pronounced like in the word: "gigantic".
Or maybe like in the word "garage"
Pronouncing it as "gif" is wrong on so many levels...
What's wrong about that? The English language is giving us clear instructions as to the pronunciation via how the word is written:
G as in "gnarly"; I as in "dive"; and F the same way that letter is pronounced in the word "cough"
Easy, right?
I'd thought it's pronounced like in the word 'graphic'.
Oh, my "joke" was that there's two G's in gigantic and it's two different sounds.
Reminiscent of the Spielberg dinosaur hit movie "Graphic Park".
