The Hebrew yodh transliterated to English is a /y/. The Hebrew bet transliterated to English is a /b/.

The Greek beta in classic is /b/. The Greek beta in modern is a /v/.

To the etymologists reading this. Do not stare at the Phoenician waw for too long. It looks like a capital Y. And by the power of suggestion you will confuse it with a yodh which when transliterated to English is a Y. And you will actually start to wonder if the yodh is a /v/. This is the path to madness.

See the page titled Y is it a waw.
