>thinks giraffe is pronounced jiraffe
Gentoo is a soft g... Where'd you hear otherwise? Also I don't give a fuck what anyone says, I'm not saying "Guh-nome" like a fucking retard.
jif just sounds better to say. Softer letters just sound better in general.
wrong
What? You mean GNU? I just avoid trying to say that word at all in any case, literally makes anyone that says it look like they're having a stroke.
See pic related.
Gnu = Gee-noo??
Is this show good?
I'm not a bloody linguistics expert, but when I was a kid watching David the Gnome (in b4 boomer memes), they didn't pronounce it "David the Guh-nome". I always figured the g was silent in "gnu".
Because they are fucking nerds and have no marketing department.
I bet my ass laTECH was named by a giggling nerd as an intentional kinky joke.

>Jraphics
Kind of. The jokes are stale but they made them first. It's worth a try imo but don't expect too much

Isn't GNU an acronym, in which case it should be pronounced "gee enn yew"? In any case (also ), sounds like "the man himself" is wrong.
>Gurassic Park
the word "gnu" referring to the animal has a silent g, but GNU as in GNU project is pronounced with a hard g
