Usage notes

  • ⟨ç⟩ is not considered a distinct letter, but a variant of ⟨c⟩. Accordingly it has the same value in alphabetical orders.
  • It is used when a ⟨c⟩ is pronounced /s/ before ⟨a⟩, ⟨o⟩ or ⟨u⟩. This happens mostly in derivatives and inflections. For example, français (French) derived from France, or commençons (we begin), inflected form of commencer. One of the fairly rare counterexamples would be façon (way, fashion).
