PhoenicianI-01.svg EtruscanI-01.svg Iota uc lc.svg Latin I

In the Phoenician alphabet, the letter may have originated in a hieroglyph for an arm that represented a voiced pharyngeal fricative (/ʕ/) in Egyptian, but was reassigned to /j/ (as in English "yes") by Semites, because their word for "arm" began with that audio. This letter could also be used to represent /i/, the close front unrounded vowel, mainly in foreign words.

The Greeks adopted a form of this Phoenician yodh as their alphabetic character iota (⟨Ι, ι⟩) to represent /i/, the aforementioned as in the Onetime Italic alphabet. In Latin (as in Modern Greek), it was likewise used to represent /j/ and this use persists in the languages that descended from Latin. The modern letter 'j' originated as a variation of 'i', and both were used interchangeably for both the vowel and the consonant, coming to be differentiated simply in the 16th century.[3] The dot over the lowercase 'i' is sometimes called a tittle. In the Turkish alphabet, dotted and dotless I are considered split up letters, representing a front and back vowel, respectively, and both have uppercase ('I', 'İ') and lowercase ('ı', 'i') forms.

English

In Modern English spelling, ⟨i⟩ represents several dissimilar sounds, either the diphthong ("long" ⟨i⟩) as in kite, the curt as in bill, or the ⟨ee⟩ sound in the terminal syllable of machine. The diphthong /aɪ/ developed from Eye English /iː/ through a series of vowel shifts. In the Groovy Vowel Shift, Middle English language /iː/ changed to Early Modern English /ei/, which later changed to /əi/ and finally to the Modern English language diphthong /aɪ/ in General American and Received Pronunciation. Because the diphthong /aɪ/ developed from a Middle English long vowel, it is called "long" ⟨i⟩ in traditional English language grammar.[ commendation needed ]

The letter ⟨i⟩ is the fifth most mutual letter in the English language.[4]

The English first-person atypical nominative pronoun is "I", pronounced and always written with a capital letter. This pattern arose for basically the aforementioned reason that lowercase ⟨i⟩ acquired a dot: so it wouldn't become lost in manuscripts earlier the age of press:

The capitalized "I" first showed up about 1250 in the northern and midland dialects of England, according to the Chambers Dictionary of Etymology.

Chambers notes, however, that the capitalized class didn't go established in the south of England "until the 1700s (although it appears sporadically before that time).

Capitalizing the pronoun, Chambers explains, made it more than distinct, thus "avoiding misreading handwritten manuscripts."[5]

Other languages

Pronunciation of the name of the letter of the alphabet ⟨i⟩ in European languages

In many languages' orthographies, ⟨i⟩ is used to represent the sound /i/ or, more rarely, /ɪ/.

Language Pronunciation in IPA Notes
French /i/ See French orthography.
German /ɪ/, /iː/, /i/ Run across German orthography.
Italian /i/ Pronounced as long [iː] in stressed and open syllables, [i] when in a closed stressed syllable or unstressed. See Italian orthography.
Kurmanji /ɪ/ /i/ represented with ⟨î⟩
Portuguese /i/ See Portuguese orthography.
/ai̯/ Only in some contempo loanwords.

Other uses

The Roman numeral I represents the number 1.[6] [vii] In mathematics, a lowercase " i " is used to stand for the unit imaginary number,[8] while an capital " I " serves to denote an identity matrix.[9]

Forms and variants

In some sans serif typefaces, the uppercase alphabetic character I, 'I' may be difficult to distinguish from the lowercase alphabetic character Fifty, 'l', the vertical bar grapheme '|', or the digit one '1'. In serifed typefaces, the capital course of the letter has both a baseline and a cap-height serif, while the lowercase Fifty generally has a hooked ascender and a baseline serif.

The upper-case letter I does not have a dot (tittle) while the lowercase i has 1 in virtually Latin-derived alphabets. However, some schemes, such as the Turkish alphabet, have two kinds of I: dotted (2) and dotless (Iı).

The uppercase I has ii kinds of shapes, with serifs (I with crossbars.svg) and without serifs (I without crossbars.svg). Usually these are considered equivalent, but they are distinguished in some extended Latin alphabet systems, such as the 1978 version of the African reference alphabet. In that organization, the former is the uppercase analogue of ɪ and the latter is the analogue of 'i'.
