BrigidIs the correct pronunciation of the word “younger” with a hard or a soft “g”?
Can't seem to find an answer to this one. Does anyone else know the answer to this question? Thanks.

Richard EnglishIn my southern UK English accent I'd say it with a hard g.

KallehWelcome, Brigid!
In American English it is a hard "g."

jazzboCRPersonally, I say it as if the g is doubled; softer in the stressed syllable; harder in the unstressed, if this makes sense.

KallehIt does make sense, and now that you say it that way, that's also how I pronounce it.
