(I'm far from an IPA expert, but...) There seems to be a logic to the name (and thus to how the glyph SHOULD look) [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voiced_palatal_implosive]: | Voiced palatal implosive | | ...dotless lowercase letter j with a horizontal stroke (the symbol | for the voiced palatal plosive) and a rightward hook (the diacritic | for implosives)... So I would conclude that an esh-like or turned f-like glyph would just be approximants, and not the intended glyph for any font. So please make Latin small letter dotless j with stroke and hook look according to its name (and definitely not with two strokes, misinterpreting the serif on the j-part as a stroke, which I see in some fonts). /kent k http://mudrac.ffzg.hr/~ltatomir/skripte/skripte/IPA_chart_2005.jpeg
