Etymology

From Gaj's Latin alphabet ć, from Czech alphabet č, from Latin c, a modification of uppercase letter C, from Etruscan 𐌂 (c), from Ancient Greek Γ (G, Gamma), from Phoenician 𐤂 (g, gimel). Pronunciation as IPA(key): /t͡ʃə/ is initial Slovene (phoneme plus a fill vowel) and the second pronunciation is probably by analogy of German C from German.

  • (phoneme, standard): IPA(key): /t͡ʃ/
  • (phoneme, dialectal, educated): IPA(key): /t͡ɕ/
  • (letter name, standard): IPA(key): /mɛ̀ːxki t͡ʃə́/, /mɛ̀ːxki t͡ʃèː/, /mɛ̀ːxki t͡ʃéː/ (mehki č)
