So were yifs animated in the Old England?

Old English? Are we going to start pronouncing the k in knee, knife and knight and g in gnaw, gnat and gnome as well?

[-] flying_mechanic@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

Wait, you don't?

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

what's the origin of this comic panel?

[-] CarbonIceDragon@pawb.social 8 points 2 years ago

The Onion (as in the news satire place) has a recurring comic with political cartoons and such (though of course being the onion, its meant to make fun of such cartoons). It comes from one of those, though I dont remember which one in particular for context.

There’s a guy slicing gyro meat somewhere yelling “I knew it!”

Wouldnt those be pronounced as S so it would be YISS?

[-] callyral@pawb.social 5 points 2 years ago

Those are Fs not to be confused with long Ss (ſ)

[-] doctorcrimson@lemmy.today 5 points 2 years ago

My argument makes about as much sense as using Old English to pronounce a modern file format.

It's YISS now.
