@@umwhatamIdoinghere bc that's what gif stand for. You don't say jraphics do you?

[@umwhatamIdoinghere]

@@RationalFunction because GIF and graphic are treated as their own words. The same rule applies for every single word acronym and partial word acronym. Some other examples for this are: BASE - Bridge Antenna Span Earth (Long A and short A respectively) NATO - North Atlantic Treaty Organization (Long A, short A) GRAS - Generally Recognised As Safe (Hard G, soft G) CASA - Civil Aviation Safety Authority (Hard C pronounced like K and soft C like S respectively)

Why is JPEJ a good argument? G is never pronounced like j when it's on the end of a word. That's why words like "range" and "gorge" need an e added, so it can sound like a j.

Laser being an acronym is the reason I give when explaining why "lazer" is always wrong. It's not the "British English" spelling " or the "American English" spelling, it's the "incorrect" spelling.

[@pennyforyourthots]

I would argue that "lazer" with a z is like "tazer" with a z. Taser is also an acronym, but people often use the Z spelling to differentiate it from the trademark product. You could also use lazer in this way, using it to describe a broader range of things that aren't technically lasers, but are very similar or are used in a different context. The acronym doesn't really make sense anymore, but if you're describing a different item and just using the acronym as a noun, then I guess it's probably not that big a deal.

To really beat a dead horse, why do we pronounce grammar as "gram-MER"? Phonics is weird.

[@robertjenkins6132]

In my understanding, pronunciation ≠ grammar. Grammar has to do with the stuff you add to the end of words (inflection/morphology): e.g.: jump, jumped, jumping; or the irregular stuff: e.g., run, ran "All your base are belong to us" is messed up grammar, even if pronounced correctly. It has to do with inflection and classes of words, like nouns, verbs, etc. Also syntax. Inflection of nouns is declension. Inflection of verbs is conjugation. I think English does not have a lot of the former (except pronouns). But if you study other languages descended from PIE, you will suffer the horror of nouns that have multiple grammatical forms depending on gender, case, etc., which have to match up with verbs and/or adjectives in the sentence. English has problems with orthography: the mapping of letters to phonemes is not deterministic, so it's guesswork as to whether ⟨g⟩ maps to [g] or [dʒ]. But this isn't really grammar, in my book.
