I say "image-er" but basically dropping a syllable. Im-jer

8 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

Im

8 years ago | Likes 15 Dislikes 2

Exactly. It's EE-MOG-ERR, duh.

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 7

"That's how it's supposed to sound" and "Nobody calls it that" aren't mutually exclusive.

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 2

Ol'Imgy?

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

So we can all agree it's the hard g, as in 'agree', to pronounce imgur, agreed?

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 5

I'm going to keep calling it eam-gurr and there's nothing anyone can do to stop me.

8 years ago | Likes 26 Dislikes 9

That’s just like how I pronounce GIF

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

imag-jur because of the ima-giraffe.

8 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 1

I call it Im-gur but dont use a english accent, its like the "Im" from Impressive and "gur" as it should sound, Imgur

8 years ago | Likes 81 Dislikes 8

Immgoor.

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 1

Exactly

8 years ago | Likes 16 Dislikes 2

But I and everyone I’ve met that uses this site calls it that

8 years ago | Likes 12 Dislikes 4

Im-grr, there is no way that Imgur sounds like imager

8 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 3

Site uses HTML "img" tag as part of its name, /-(u|i|e)?r/ suffix was popular web2.0 at the time, most devs pronounce img as image. image-ur

8 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

okay smartypants :-) but can you tell me which came first, the chicken or the egg?

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

The egg of a proto-chicken

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

And it's (proto * n) chickens all the way down until we get to reproduction through mitosis and then eventually abiogenisis (current theory)

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

.img = image file. Hence imager imgur

8 years ago | Likes 16 Dislikes 8

It's the image html tag, img. e.g., " />

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Even if that were the case it would be imger...which would STILL not be pronounced as image-er and certainly not spelled Imgur. Nonsense.

8 years ago | Likes 7 Dislikes 7

As a programmer, I'm fluent in tortured abbreviations, so I've always said imager/image-er.

8 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 1

It's UR + .IMG, move them around and you get Imgur.

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 1

Literally everybody calls it that.

8 years ago | Likes 56 Dislikes 28

It is impossible to pronounce that word as image-er. I have never met a person irl that says it that way.

8 years ago | Likes 17 Dislikes 16

it's more like emma jer

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 2

It would have been easier if they said "imager" because that's what they meant and also how I and all other people I've met pronounce it.

8 years ago | Likes 8 Dislikes 2

Yeah, missed opportunity.

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Nope. With your use of the word “literally” you are claiming 7.6 billion say “image-er”. Well I say “img-er” so that is now 6,999,999,999

8 years ago | Likes 9 Dislikes 7

Thank you

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Maybe because it’s true.

When I commented, it had 0pts... always thought comments were Ranked by pts, or is there something else they factor in? (2ndcomment had 1pt)

Proposal: "imgur" and "Gif" both have a scientific name and a common name. Scientific is how the creator says it, common name is how we do!

8 years ago | Likes 33 Dislikes 8

well then i must be a man of fucking science.

8 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Good idea!

8 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 2

And correct is when common people call it how the creator calls it, AKA the correct way. Like me.

Funny, I looked up "Doesn't know what they're talking about" in the dictionary and got you and the other people that have replied so far.

8 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 2

The creators failed to spell it they way they said it. That's their bad and also the reason we call it Im-grr. Too late now

8 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 6

It's almost like words can be pronounced slightly differently than how they're spelled.
