Mea culpa. I taught you wrong. It is closer to [dj], I just couldn't find an
easily recognizable example that sounds the same. Actually, when typing on 
the international keyboard, we usually use "dj" for "d~". Example: the
President of Croatia: Tud~man, usually written Tudjman in international press.

Sorry about the confusion.

P.S. It seems to me that English, French, German, Spanish and Italian
pronounciation should be relatively well known, at least among people who
are interested enough to read sci.lang; but I'd REALLY like to see guides
like these for Portuguese, Romanian, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Finnish,
Estonian, Hungarian, modern Greek, Turkish, Latvian, Lithuanian, Czech,
Slowak, Dutch... (more Slavic languages, too - I know some of them, but 
other people don't!)
