Ĉ
From Free net encyclopedia
Ĉ or ĉ (C circumflex) is a consonant in Esperanto orthography, representing a voiceless postalveolar affricate (either palato-alveolar or retroflex), and is equivalent to [[voiceless postalveolar affricate|Template:IPA]] or [[voiceless retroflex affricate|Template:IPA]] in the IPA.
Esperanto orthography uses a diacritic for all four of its postalveolar consonants, as do the Latin-based Slavic alphabets. Letters and digraphs that are similar to ĉ and represent the same sound include Czech č, English and Spanish ch, and Italian c before i or e.
Ĉ is also the fourth letter of the Esperanto alphabet. While it is written as cx in the x-system, it is C with a circumflex (ĉ) when written accented.
