c (lower case, upper case C)

1. A letter of the North Frisian alphabet, written in the Latin script.

• The letter occurs only in ⟨ch⟩. This digraph is pronounced as in German, thus [x] after back vowels, otherwise [ç]. The same sound is also represented by ⟨g⟩ in some positions (see there). Moreover, ⟨j⟩ becomes [ç] prevocalically after voiceless obstruents, whereas ⟨r⟩ may become [x] before voiceless stops.
• The trigraph ⟨sch⟩ represents [ʃ]. Chiefly in Sylt Frisian, ⟨sj⟩ is used instead.

• (North Frisian letters): a, ä, å, ā, b, c, d, đ, e, ē, f, g, h, i, j, k, l, m, n, o, ö, p, r, s, t, u, ü, v, w (q, x, y, z)
