The spelling of "PJD" in IPA phonetic transcription is /pi-dʒe-di/. The word is formed by the initials of the French political party, "Parti Justice et Développement". While the "P" and "J" are pronounced as expected in English, the "D" is pronounced as the voiced postalveolar affricate /dʒ/ as in "judge". This is because in French, the "D" sound often takes on this pronunciation when it appears in the middle or end of a word.
PJD is an acronym that commonly refers to "Parti Justice et Développement" in French, which translates to "Justice and Development Party" in English. It is a political party based in Morocco, known for its Islamist ideology.
