I see what you're getting at here, though I believe the more politically correct way to say it is that it is a lower "J" or sharp "J" sound. I recommend looking at other Serbian language learning sites and see what their assessments are. | I see what you're getting at here, though I believe the more politically correct way to say it is that it is a lower "J" or sharp "J" sound.

I don't mean to be that guy but I can't think of any Indian languages that have the sound (unless you count Bengali). For ć I would say like how Brits say the T in "Tuesday" and for đ I would say like how (at least some) Americans say the d-y in "did you". Maybe you confused [dʑ] for [ɖʐ]? Also, how Brits say the lli in million works for lj. --[[User:Ziwi|Ziwi]] | I don't mean to be that guy but I can't think of any Indian languages that have the sound (unless you count Bengali).

I mean, the best way to do this would be to get rid of the "Approximate english pronounciation" part entirely and replace them with IPA codes, but not everyone here (partly including me) knows what exactly they mean, so that would render the table basically useless. I switched out the original example of "J in Jay" because that sounds more like 'dž' when I pronounce it. | I mean, the best way to do this would be to get rid of the "Approximate english pronounciation" part entirely and replace them with IPA codes, but not everyone here (partly including me) knows what exactly they mean, so that would render the table basically useless.

Ah yeah sorry about that. I whipped up the comment and had to run off somewhere. I was thinking, if it's supposed to be pronouncing "d" and "ž" at once, would it be like the "G" in gendarmerie? Like the French pronunciation of "J" (If I recall correctly it's like how Bayonetta pronounces her friend's name, Jeanne). Perhaps not exact, but that was my line of thinking. Or maybe is it the "j" sound of "badge"? It's on the tip of my tongue, I just can't find a solid approximation. I know that in Russian, they use that combo for the name "John" or any name a "J" but that's an approximation on how they would say that name. --[[User:Randomatribute20k|Randomatribute20k]] | |||
