Accordingly, why is j pronounced as y?
The letter J developed from I in Latin and was initially pronounced as Y. So for example, Classical Latin iugum/jugum 'yoke' (pronounced something like yoogoom). This was then adopted by most Germanic languages and is still used in the same way in German, for example Jahr 'year' (pronounce yar).
