Re: Spanish ll in different dialects

Philip wrote: "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."

That occurs in Chilean Spanish too--my ex's dad says her name, Yasmin, with
[dZ] and not [j].

Any other dialects have <y> as /dZ/?
