- In a number of languages, it is used only for the /tʃ/ sound.
- In many languages, it occurs frequently in the digraph with ch.
- In some romanization systems of non-Latin scripts, it represents /tʃ/, /θ/, or /tsʰ/.

c
Etymology 2

- The 3rd letter of the Norwegian alphabet.
Usage notes
- Only used in words of foreign origin, usually English. Even rare in loanwords, as this letter does not represent a sound of its own.
- Still kept in many Christian names, therefore Caroline and Karoline are both acceptable spellings.
