Meaning what? A reconstructed Classical or pseudo-Classical
pronunciation? Well, we say [ave tsezar], not [awe kaisar]. On the
other hand, a "hardened" prounciation of <ge> in this part of Europe
has been popular since Erasmus' time, but in loans [je], inherited
from the regional brand of Mediaeval school Latin persisted till the
late 19th century (<jeneralny, ewanielia>).
