    I've never met anyone who pronounces it with a soft g.

    Such people are a fiction invented by the Illuminati to foment disunity on the internet.

    One of my friends in high school was a German exchange student, and she had opinions about heteronyms. She would forward emails to the group that were just extensive lists of English sentences that piss Germans off, like "The dove dove under the net" and "The bear is too close, close the door!"

    Germans may not know when to stop compounding a word, but by God they know exactly how to pronounce it when they're done.

    Well lead and lead have two different meanings. Thus, two different pronunciations.

    But gif has only one meaning.

    And so it has only one pronunciation.

    And that pronunciation... is gif.

    That there are some injustices we cannot prevent doesn't mean we should ignore the ones that we can.

    It's really pretty simple - folks who say it's pronounced gif never have to write it with a 'j'.
    It's pronounced cif
