(Redirected from C-circumflex)

'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 or 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 Slovene ''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.
