elah Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 So I started EFRU vol. 1 with my girls. I am just getting to card 21 which is jacio jactum. In the teacher notes it said that the j was pronounced as a 'y' sound. At the beginning of the book it didn't say to pronounce the j sound in any special way. I'm not familiar with Latin so I am really confused. How do I and my girls, pronounce the 'j' sound? I want them to continue learning latin after this and don't want to confuse them. Thanks!

SilverMoon Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 If you're going to start classical Latin I would pronounce them yakio yaktum, as that's what will be in the Latin book. It's not a big deal at this stage of the game though! Your Latin book will teach the pronunciation and they'll pick it up then. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
