And how do you tell people how to pronounce garage using text?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

gə-ˈräZH

but seriously, any time some one says they use the J sound, they explain by spelling it JIF. It's just a joke though. No one cares how you pronounce it.

That's true, both pronunciations are fine. I have heard your point being used unironically before, though.
