Synopsis
Excerpt from Latin Lessons for Beginners
Y and Z began to be used in the first century b.c., in a few words borrowed from the Greeks, to represent sounds foreign to Latin. The Romans themselves used but one Sign V for both the vowel U and the semi consonantal V (pronounced w), and similarly one sign I for both the vowel I and the semi-consonantal J (pronounced y). For the sake of convenience and clearness, however, many modern books (especially those for beginners in Latin) follow the custom that arose in the middle ages, of using distinct signs for the different sounds.
