Ȼ (minuscule: ȼ) is a letter of the Latin alphabet, formed from C with the addition of a stroke through the letter. Its minuscule form represents the sound [ts] (ts as in cats) in certain phonetic transcription systems for the indigenous languages of Mexico.[1] The Saanich alphabet uses its majuscule form (the alphabet is caseless) for [kʷ] (qu as in quilt).[2] In Unifon, a phonemic transcription for American English, it represents /tʃ/.[3]

editȻ was added to Unicode 4.1 in 2005, in the Latin Extended-B block.[5] It did not previously exist in character sets, and consequently some fonts may not display it; it is often substituted by the cent sign ⟨¢⟩.
