Je With Stroke (Ј̵ ј̵; italics: Ј̵ ј̵) is a letter of the Cyrillic script, taken over from the Latin letter J.[1]

It commonly represents the palatal approximant /dʒ/, like the pronunciation of ⟨j⟩ in "jungle".

History

[edit]

The Cyrillic letter ј̵ was introduced in the 1818 Serbian dictionary of Vuk Stefanović Karadžić, on the basis of the Latin letter ɉ.[1] Karadžić had previously used ї instead for the same sound, a usage he took from Dositej Obradović,[2] and the final choice also notably edged out another expected candidate, й, used in every other standard Slavic-language Cyrillic script.

Usage

[edit]

An asterisk (*) means the language does not use the letter in its orthography anymore.

Language pronunciation notes
Altai voiced palatal plosive /ɟ~dʒ/
Azerbaijani /j/ corresponds to ⟨y⟩ in the official Latin alphabet.
Kildin Sami voiceless palatal approximant /j̊/ the letter Short I with tail (Ҋ ҋ) is also used.
Macedonian /j/ Prior to the development of the Macedonian alphabet in 1944–45, Macedonian authors used either І і or Й й.[3]
Orok /j/
Ossetian* /j/ used in the original (pre-1923) Cyrillic orthography.
Serbian /j/ in Vuk Karadžić's alphabet, the letter Je replaced the traditional letter Short I (Й й), which invited accusations of submission to the Latin script and Catholic Church (in Austria) from the Orthodox clergy.
