How did the letter |J| come to represent [dZ] in English, while continuing to represent [j] in the other Germanic languages? Was it because of French influence? I assume there was a period when |J| represented [Z] in English, between representing [j] and [dZ]... do we know when the change(s) happened? Thanks. -- Mark J. Reed <markjreed@...>
