| Nov 9, 2022 at 17:47 | comment | added | qpwoe | Oh, I see! I was thinking "Gee" was pronounced like "ghee," but it's actually supposed to be pronounced like the j in "jeans". I guess the romanization is just an approximation of the sound from a British perspective, before formal romanization schemes came into effect. | |
