I disagree. If the letter your adding is E, it will change the promounciation of the vowel. That’s the function of the E. Adding a consonant like t doesn’t change the vowel sound (eg. How you would pronounce something like “sif” vs “sift” - no change in the vowel.
how do you pronounce God, goo, grey, great, good, gun, gumption, goofy
plus jif is peanut butter
While I agree with you on how it should be pronounced, not a good argument. Giraffe.
Gift without the t, I always say
That falls apart when you have all the words like bit and bite, made and mad, same and sam.

I would accept gife (rhymes with life) with hard G before I accept jif.
Then go fight the dictionary, both pronunciations are in there
Gift is closer to gif than giraffe…
Geordie Laforge thumbs up
Gin Gist Giraffe Gino Gif Gimp Git Gift

My favorite is the gif of the skubbah diver with a lassear beam on their frickin head.

Sorry, I meant giraffe.
I am underappreciated in my time.
I agree with you but I have a simpler argument, which is the mere fact that this exists: https://fileinfo.com/extension/jif
WOAH. Didn’t know about this. Maybe I can finally convince my mom… doubt.
u choose all these unrelated words when theres GIFt
SCUBA
I’m seeing vowel consonant vowel, that’s a long U in the new word regardless to what it stands for in the acronym.
Also, if jizz is not spelled as gizz, so why would jif spelled as gif?
