Je (Ј, ј) is a letter of the Cyrillic alphabet, used in the Serbian, Macedonian, Azeri, and Altai languages. It replaced the traditional Cyrillic accented и (й) in Vuk Karadžić's alphabet, which invited accusations of submission to the Latin script and Catholic Church (in Austria) from the Orthodox clergy.
[edit] Phonetic value
In Serbian, Macedonian and Azeri this letter is pronounced as the palatal approximant, /j/.
It is also used in the Altai language to represent the voiced postalveolar affricate, /ʤ/.
