DataSecs9278yThat's the same as some Germans say "Kina" for the German name of China. They pronounce a "Ch" like a "k". That really gets me off 😂😅 -
One of them right here! That's because in Italian we pronounce it "jit" unless is written "ghit".

RTRMS36558y@Lahsen2016 gift, gimble, gimp, gigahertz, gigayte, gibberish, gigacycle (basically anything giga), girl, giggle, give.
Thats about all I got... -
RealKC9548y@RTRMS the way Giga is pronounced depends on wether someone uses UK English(in which it is giga, I think) or US English(I think in this one it's jiga, could actually be reversed), so yeah -
RTRMS36558y@RealKC Those of us who speak english use a hard G, as the language dicatates, the 10% of the idiots who speak American may pronounce it as J, but then again they already can't spell to begin with.
That is the only thing I truely hate about being a developer, being forced to spell incorrectly. -
There are people that for some reason say j instead of g for some words. I've heard jigabyte and even jeegabyte.
Probably where they came from and where they learned English.
