<J> was never used in Latin. You could spell modern Latin with it if you wanted, but it's likely to be mispronounced because <j> sounds so different between languages. Spelling words with just <i> works for Italian, so I don't see why it wouldn't work for Latin.Woods wrote:If it was a variant of "i" which wasn't invented until later languages came into play, would it make any sense to spell a Latin word with "j" today if one wants to represent some term that was used was Latin was a thing?
