Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Also, "gi" in english makes the hard g sound very often, like in gift, or give, or giddy. You need to do some real mental gymnastics to justify it as a j sound
The giant ginger biologist originally apologized for being allergic to ginseng.
I wear a gi in martial arts
I'm going to call it "geef" from now on!
Not sure if the use of the word "gymnastics" is intentional here
I'm not taking about gy or ge, I'm talking about gi
Giraffe, ginger, ginseng, gist
What about gin?
Sure, I'll have some.

looks like a lot of palatal affricates to me dawg idk, i think you're the one doing mental gymnastics trying to justify it not being pronounced the way the creator specified. "gif" the way you ask for just sounds weird
Say the word "gift". Don't pronounce the t. Wow. That simple.
Say the word "giraffe". Don't pronounce the ra. Wow. That simple.
