I don't know when I'll next get the opportunity to ask this, so

How do people pronounce this: "gee lib cee" or "glib cee"?

I have the same question about clang

idk what the official pronunciation is, but i say "gee lib cee" and "clang" (like the onomatopoeia)

Just to confirm, I say gee lib cee or lib cee as well. Honestly, I have never heard any different.

Since the pronunciation of "gif" became an issue, I stopped caring about how anyone says anything. My pet giraffe has his own opinion though.

  1. glib cee

  2. clang as if a metal pipe fell on the floor and made a loud noise: "CLANG"

Glib see, see lang
