The Italian soft c pronunciation is /tʃ/ (as in cello and ciao), while the hard c is the same as in English. Italian orthography uses ch to indicate a hard pronunciation before e or i , analogous to English using k (as in kill and keep ) and qu (as in mosquito and queue ).
Other than English, Dutch uses c the most, for most Romance loans and the digraph ch . German uses c in the digraphs ch and ck , and the trigraph sch , but by itself only in unassimilated loanwords and proper names. Danish keeps soft c in Romance words but changes hard c to k .

While c , which also has hard and soft pronunciations, exists alongside k (which always indicates a hard pronunciation), g has no analogous letter or letter combination which consistently indicates a hard g sound, even though English uses j consistently for the soft g sound (the rationale for the spelling change of "gaol" to "jail").
