I thought I knew how to pronounce Kagi, but their pronunciation guide kah-gee makes me wonder how “gee” is pronounced. Like the G in GIF or like the G in GIF?
If it’s a Japanese romanization (which it looks like, but idk for sure), it’s almost certainly a hard G as in gator.
When a new startup gets a 4 letter dot com domain name, I have to assume they found an available or for sale four letter domain name that was pronounceable then tried to push some meaning into it. Four letter dot coms are not exactly easy to find. I’d probably not read too much into the word itself.
However, if it is a hard G, that’s good, because that’s how I’ve been saying it.
It may not have initially been chosen for its meaning, but on their website they do say this:
You pronounce kagi in Japanese as ka-gi with a hard G. (Source: Wiktionary)
Ooh nice find, thanks!
I always found it funny that in Italian kagi is read “caghi” which is a mediumly-rude word for “you take a dump”.
Not what you were looking for, sorry for the OT :)
Haha maybe they need to update their logo! 💩
Neither. It’s G in GIF.
I love it! Very fancy sounding!
