In Irish, c usually represents a hard /k/, but represents /c/ before e or i, or after i. In Scottish Gaelic, broad c is one of /kʰ ʰk ʰk k/, and slender c is one of /kʰʲ ʰkʲ ʰkʲ kʲ/, depending on the phonetic environment. A number of orthographies do not make a hard/soft distinction.
Czech orthography is a system of rules for proper formal writing (orthography) in Czech.The earliest form of separate Latin script specifically designed to suit Czech was devised by Czech theologian and church reformist Jan Hus, the namesake of the Hussite movement, in one of his seminal works, De orthographia bohemica (On Bohemian orthography).
Swedish has the same rules for soft and hard c as Danish, and also uses c in the digraph ck and the very common word och, "and". Norwegian, Afrikaans, and Icelandic are the most restrictive, replacing all cases of c with k or s , and reserving c for unassimilated loanwords and names.
For example, if a burst of static cuts off the start of an English-language utterance of the letter J, it may be mistaken for A or K. In the international radiotelephony spelling alphabet known as the ICAO (or NATO) phonetic alphabet, the sequence J–A–K would be pronounced Juliett–Alfa–Kilo.
