Valencian, Basque, Galician...[edit]
The current map (from 5 March 2016) has some mistakes, e.g. Valencian (a dialect of Catalan) has the same sound than English [d͡ʒ], Galician (standard spelling) doesn't use <j> in native words and Basque <j> has many allophones, could anyone correct this? (See pronunciation of <j> in the European languages). Thank you. — Nuvolet (talk) 11:27, 21 March 2017 (UTC)

In Italian[edit]
in the few* italian words the J is read like the I, in the foreign loan words is read similar to the original language
- the use of the J is vanished in italian, around in the passage from XIX to XX century
