That is also the case in Standard Croatian and in my native ©tokavian
dialect. But Dutch has the opposition of approximant and fricative /v/, we
don't.
-- Okay, now I'm beginning to suspect the truth is that virtually every modern IE language has a dialect or dialects that have preserved initial /w/. Boy, did I speak too soon.
