So this is why gymnasium is pronounced with j! I don't understand why they just couldn't tell us the rules, that would have made things so much easier. The only rule we were taught was that ä is pronounced like e, unless it's before r. (Altough some apparently pronounce är as e...?)

But in some dialects ä and e never are the same thing, apparently ... And yes, pronouncing är as e is very very common.
