🇫🇷 How to write it: A cedilla (cédille in French)
Le “ç” or “le c cédille”is a very odd, but elegant, French letter. It can be a little intimidating when you come across it for the first time!
As I say to my students, write the c letter, do a vertical bar under the C, and write a small, reversed C.... it's like a small hook that goes beneath a letter. In some languages, a cedilla can be used with several letters, but in French, the cedilla is only used with the letter “c”.
In French, when a cedilla is beneath the letter “c”, this indicates that the sound is soft, like an “s”, instead of hard, like a “k”.
🇫🇷 When do you use it: A cedilla (cédille in French)
Ç : Le “c cédille”
Ç is called “le c cédille” (and the little wiggly thing under the C is called “la cédille”)
Ç always sounds like [“sss”] !
So it’s a way to have a “c” letter that sounds like “sss” even in front of a / o / u.
For instance:
A : Ça = [sah] = “this” ; Français = [fransay] = French!
O : Un garçon = [gahr-son] = “a boy”
U : Déçu = [deh-suu] = “disappointed”
La cédille comes from Medieval Spain. You can learn more about its history with this episode of a great French TV broadcast from “Arte” channel: Click here to watch Karambolage – La cédille
