Words that Start with C
This section will provide you with more information on the words that start with C.
Interesting notes about the letter C:
- The letter C is the third letter of the English alphabet.
- It makes two distinct sounds – soft like \ s \ and hard like a \ k \.
- It also changes sounds depending on different letters that come after it, such as –h (church), -ia (special), and –s (luscious).
- It was originally the hump of a camel (Gimel) as used by the Phoenicians around 500 B.C, and it may have originally resembled a boomerang.
- The Etruscans used it for a K sound, and then the Romans took it as C after 9 B.C., adding a bar to it to use as a G, as well.
