Hey all. Just looking for input to reach consensus on how to transcribe the pronunciation of Ghidra.
I believe that the pronunciation in the video announcing Ghidra is properly transcribed as /ˈɡiːdʒrə/ and not /ˈɡiːdrə/.
The reason why I believe this is because it is the same sound as the ‘j’ in jump, from what I hear. The ‘j’ in jump is notated as the affricate dʒ.
Example: https://www.oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com/us/definition/english/jump_2
Another example is from Wikipedia’s English IPA help page at /info/en/?search=Help:IPA/English. The sound should be identical to the two examples given there for the 'dʒ' sound: giant, and badge.
I want to get everyone else’s input to be sure everyone can agree before we change the pronunciation. I changed the pronunciation without first gathering input and that was my mistake. Cheers. Stephenamills ( talk) 02:37, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
