SloveneEdit
Alternative formsEdit
EtymologyEdit
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.
PronunciationEdit
- (phoneme, standard): IPA(key): /t͡ʃ/, [d͡ʒ]
- (phoneme, dialects with t’–č distinction): IPA(key): /t͡ʃ/, /t͡ɕ/, [d͡ʒ], [d͡ʑ]
- (letter name): IPA(key): /t͡ʃə́/, /t͡ʃéː/, /t͡ʃèː/
- (letter name, linguistics): IPA(key): /tə̀rdi t͡ʃə́/, /tə̀rdi t͡ʃèː/, /tə̀rdi t͡ʃéː/ (trdi č)
- Rhymes: -ə, -eː
