- 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 - 1 
- 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? 
 
- Jraphical Interchange Format  
- Self contained uunderwater breathing ahpparatus - Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation 
 
 
 
- 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. 
- 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.  
 
- pronounce it “tshiff” 
 
- 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. 
 
 
- Thats pretty cool, thanks. I am having a hard time translating phonetic notation into sunds in my head :D - Me too, so this was a big revelation for me. 
- 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! 
 
- G as in gif 
- PNG is better - And it’s @irish_link@lemmy.world with a steel chair! 
 
- Time to grab some popcorn and read the comments

- 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’
