While Fjords, Cjhevrolets, and Djodges didn't trigger anything, when you wrote "Stjudebakers" I thought "Needs more umlauts." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Confoundo Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 Re: "Neat" Pictures Probably Urban Legend' date=' but one story is that Pierre L'Enfant hated with a passion John Jay.[/quote'] Definitely Urban Legend - Snopes even has a page on it: Link The mundane explanation is that J Street was likely omitted simply because the letters I and J were often indistinguishable from each other (especially when handwritten)' date=' and in 18th century English they were still largely interchangeable. (The 1740 "New General English Dictionary" published in London had a single section for I and J, and the standard identification Thomas Jefferson used on his personal possessions was "T.I.") Having both an "I" and a "J" street would have been redundant at best and confusing at worst, so "J" ended up as the odd man out.[/quote'] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
