When was the letter "J" added to the Latin alphabet?

The answer reveals a huge mystery.

Anyone know?

I heard 500 years ago.

Around the mid 1500s

Now think about this, how could anyone have a name or even a woed that started with that letter before it existed?

typo
woed = word

It was pronounced with a "y" sound.

How can you speak English when English wasn't even around 1000 years ago?

Guess they didnt or thought it was another version of g, or g took the place of j.

it was originally latin

weird you say that because G didn't exist till around that same time as well.

English wasn't originally Latin. Now answer please: How can you speak English when English wasn't even around 1000 years ago?

I know.

That's all BS to hide the name of the Creator.

Ancient Latin alphabet

You get it. Thanks

note. I'm only bringing this up so people think deeper.

That page proves that you are wrong! English derives from Old English, not from Latin!

Hot damn, finally a question worth an answer!!!! (Not to mention learning Latin)

Not a messy antic J** Zioni$t torah-lover.

hmm this is not about being jew.

The common explanation is the transition from the spoken sound of "io" to writing, like in "iota" or similar words.

When was the letter "u" introduced to the European writing? It did not exist in latin writing either.

What about the name George then, that names been around forever, or was it not English at the time

yah yah - the real name can't be "j"esus


we get it - it's the spirit being you are calling out to

Yahshaya - Yahuwa - whatever - don't make people fret on dumb shit that doesn't matter

His name was and is Yeshua.

maybe it doesn't matter to you, the way you talk, seems to seek things of this world.

you cant talk to someone if you don't know their name.

unless your me and just talk to whoever listens

does the bible say that?

"I" was interchangable for the same sounds we use them for today. We still could make a "J" sound... it's like saying how can a spanish guy know what a dog is, if he doesn't speak english? Well, even if he doesn't know the word dog he still knows what a dog is and has a way to express it.


I understand the J for jesus part... but anyone who takes religion seriously has missed the ball anyways.

why is Gesu pronounced the way it is, in Italian?
