Excuse me sir that goes against my vibes, and this is the English language we are talking about, the right and wrong answers need not make any sense.

JPEG, which stands for “Joint Photographic Experts Group” should be pronounced “JPhEG”.

GIF is pronounced with a G because that’s how most people naturally pronounce those 3 ordered lettets as a word. Additionally, it makes sense to use G because that’s what the underlying word uses. Nobody would pronounce “JPEG” as “JPHEG” naturally.

Wouldn’t it be produced JoiPhEG? Because the J in joint isn’t pronounced like “jay”
