A friend of mine, a Japanese who had spent a year or two on Mexico and
picked up a little Spanish, gave me the phrase [dZo mE dZamo <name>],
which confused me since I could imagine [dZ] for |ll| but had never
heard of any pronunciation for |y| but [j]. Yet she insisted that that
was the pronunciation she had learned there.
