It can sound like a K, as in catchy, but it can also sound like the soft hiss of a serpent, as in celestial.

The letter C can also be a bit bratty from time to time. It pushes around poor E and I so that nobody really knows which comes first in words such as “ceiling,” often making English spelling much more difficult than it should be.
