Sure, GIF stands for Graphics Interchange Format. It's a type of file format used mostly for web graphics, especially moving images. Similar to how a flipbook works, a GIF contains multiple images or "frames" that are displayed in succession to create an animation that loops endlessly. They rose to popularity due to their ability to support transparency and animation, features that were rare among the file formats in the early days of the internet. Today, they're commonly used to convey short, looping clips often for humorous or expressive purposes.
