In Intervention, the Buffybot pronounces “Giles” with a soft g (as in “gills”). Joss Whedon and Marti Noxon have said on several occassions that they get annoyed with so-called fans of the show when they pronouce “Giles” in this way. This is the writers’ way of making fun of those “fans”. |

Not to be pedantic (Oh the hell with it! Let’s enjoy being pedantic!!), in normal usage ’soft G’ is what the G in the proper pronounciation of Giles’ is called—the ‘gill’ g is the hard G.
