Ĉ ĉ

Ĉ or ĉ (C circumflex) is a consonant in Esperanto orthography, representing the sound [t͡ʃ].

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, Polish digraph cz, 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. Dr Zamenhof, the creator of Esperanto, recommended using ch.
