Slovene
Etymology
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.
