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]]

Dž is just like the J in English. Đ is different. I guess you can say đ is more "springy"? It's how it feels like when I say it. --[[User:Ziwi|Ziwi]]
== V and the voiceless plosives ==
The v sound in Serbian, [ʋ], is more in-between /v/ and /w/, most English dialects don't have the sound so it's hard to get at, and the voiceless plosives aren't aspirated like they usually are in english, they're more like they are after /s/, think like sTop, sCam, sPot, you'll notice they're different, and as for č I can't think of any word in English that has unaspirated /t͡ʃ/ --[[User:Ziwi|Ziwi]]
