י

The Yód or Yúd (י) is the tenth letter of the Hebrew alphabet, equivalent to the letter yod of the Phoenician alphabet. Its phonetics is equivalent to the Spanish Y or I.

In both Phoenician and Hebrew, this letter represents a consonant (AFI [j]), but in the iota (Ι, ι) of the Greek alphabet (which comes from Phoenician), it always represents the vowel /i/. It should be noted that the Latin derived letter, the letter I, served the Romans for both /i/ and /j/. In current Latin alphabets, however, /j/ is denoted J.

Did you mean: Su tamaño la convierte en la letra más pequeña e indivisible del alfabeto hebreo, a diferencia de las demás letras, que están compuestas de varias partes.
