Kif

kif: originally a synonym for marijuana, then evolved to a variety of slang words associated with pleasure:
C'est le kif! = It's great!
Je kiffe! = I love this!

See also kif-kif = the same
C'est kif-kif! or C'est kif-kif bourricot! = It's all the same! (a bourricot is a donkey - don't ask me)

My only question is...how do you say this? I cannot tell if I should pronounce it with a hard i like "Keef" or with a soft i like "Kip"
