199: gif Jun 25, 2015

'GIF', which is pronounced with the choice /ˈdʒɪf/ or /ˈɡɪf/ depending on the speaker–so everyone can stop arguing you are all correct– stands for "graphic interchange format". This word was created in the 1980's, but because the technology was so underdeveloped by our standards today, that not many saw nor discussed GIF's until the time around 2010.
