Those are pronounced like the spreadable peanut product, by the way, with a soft “J” sound.
So, you know, don’t be a heathen and pronounce it like “gift” with the “t” left off. The creators intended it the other way.
But, I already digress. Â The point isn’t to reinforce the correct way to say it, but rather to give you a link to view some. Â And, not just any GIFs, but some very beautiful, creative GIFs based on ancient Japanese woodblock prints. Â I’ve loved those “Views of Mount Fuji” era, colored, Japanese prints since I can remember. Â And, I’m a child of technology who remembers that the first on-line animation we had was really the animated GIF. Â (Which probably reveals my advancing age!) Â So, in any case, when you combine classical art with modern-ish technology like this, I just eat up with a spoon! Â And, hopefully, you’ll enjoy these captivating images brought to you by GIFMagazine.net, too.
After all, it is Friday and I’m sure you all need to relax a bit as much as I do, so, enjoy!
