- bmacho 3y agoI personally follow the "I am the user, my rules" when it comes to language rules :P. It is at least as strong as "their word, their rules". Also I can see that Paul Graham's "my website my rules" is even stronger than mine or DJ Delorie's, so Djgpp is also correct (if not by the Gods, then by fist).
- jhgb 3y ago> their word, their rules That strongly reminds me of "it's spelt Raymond Luxury-Yacht, but it's pronounced 'Throatwobbler Mangrove'".

- torstenvl 3y agoThe G is from graphics [ɡɹæfɪks]. Additionally, word-initial single G before short I is always [g] instead of [dʒ] in native English: gift girl give gibbon gimlet gizzard gilded git gimp giddy gig gimbal. The exceptions are borrowed French words: gin (le gin), ginger (le gingembre), giraffe (la girafe), giblet (OF: gibelet).
