It absolutely does not, and the Old Valthungian speakers never came within 500 miles of present-day Spain, but facts have never stood in the way of good speculation.</ref>

There are, however, some examples of 〈iij〉 which is usually taken as evidence for dating this particular sound change.

This phoneme was used only in borrowings from the Greek, and after the Old Valthungian period, these two phonemes had completely merged.
 Our intermediate transcription shows 〈ÿ〉 for the 〈ү〉 letter representing Gothic 〈𐍅/w〉 from Greek 〈υ〉. The exact pronunciation is unknown, but it seems likely that it was differentiated from 〈eu〉 (the i-umlaut of /u/) in Old Valthungian. These two sounds had merged by the Middle Valthungian period.
