@redenchilada The ancient Greeks said the sun orbited the Earth and they were first so they must have been right

@redenchilada I like this. I've been using both pronunciations. It will take a bit of effort to get into the habit but finally the debate is over for me.

@redenchilada I still wonder, "ghiff" pronounced in italian? Like the spanish "Chif"?
Monday, 29-Jul-13 16:30:40 UTC from web-
@nerthos "Yiff" It's really an international language
-
@ceruleansquawk Yiff, worldwide language.

@redenchilada Also unacceptable: jaypeg, peenjee.

@scribus The correct pronunciations of course are 'jip-guh' and 'pung'.
Monday, 29-Jul-13 16:54:29 UTC from web-
@rotation i call it "jota pégui"
Monday, 29-Jul-13 16:55:06 UTC from web-
@mushi @rotation "Jota (j as h in home, o like in jhon, ta like to in stop) pe (as in pe in peroxide) ge (the g pronounced like home's h, e as in well)"
Monday, 29-Jul-13 17:02:07 UTC from web-
@nerthos jota... I would say that as "yota"
Monday, 29-Jul-13 17:08:51 UTC from web-
@techdisk It depends on what language you're pronouncing it in. If you do it in Brazilian, like @mushi, it'll sound fairly diferent from Spanish.

@rotation I knew a guy who called HTML files "Hotmail" files, and MIDI files "Em Eye Dee Eye" files.

@scribus ...I used to pronounce it "my die". :c
Monday, 29-Jul-13 17:03:04 UTC from web-
@redenchilada Eh, still not spelling it out.

@scribus MIDI is acceptable.
Monday, 29-Jul-13 17:07:05 UTC from web-
