Etymology

[edit]

From Gaj's Latin alphabet Đ, from Czech alphabet D, from Latin D, from the Etruscan letter 𐌃 (d, de), from the Ancient Greek letter Δ (D, delta), derived from the Phoenician letter 𐤃 (d, dalet), from an uncertain origin, likely the Egyptian hieroglyph 𓉿. Pronunciation as IPA(key): /d͡ʒə/ is initial Slovene (phoneme plus a fill vowel) and the second pronunciation is probably by analogy from German D.

Pronunciation
