Letter

 * 1) the twenty-fourth letter of the Latin alphabet, called  in Italian

Usage notes

Etymology
From ×.

Symbol

 * 1) false.

Etymology
Borrowed from, which represented /ks/ in the dialects of most of the Greek mainland and Euboea.

Pronunciation
The sound of X was like that of the Greek, that is /ks/, although etymologically it represented not only cs (as in , from luc-s, and , from dic-si), but also gs (as in , from leg-s; , from reg-si); hs (as in , from trah-si; , from veh-si); and chs (as in the word , from onych-s, borrowed from the Greek). The hardening of a softer final (g, h, ch) before s into the с sound, which occurs in the last-mentioned cases, is found also in several roots ending in v and u: for niv-s,  for viv-si,  for conniv-si,  for fluv-si, from  (root fluv-; compare ),  for stru-si.

Less frequently x has arisen from the combinations ps and ts: for prop-simus (from ),  for nit-sus (from ), the latter being used along with the collateral form, as also  with , and  (from ) with.

An exchange of the sounds ss or s and x, took place in for assis and  for lassus. In the later language of the vulgar, the guttural sound in x disappeared, and s or ss was often written for it; as vis for, visit for , unsit for , conflississet for , in late inscriptions; hence regularly in Italian, and frequently in the other Romance tongues, the Latin x is represented by s or ss.

By a mere graphic variation, one of the constituent sounds of x is often expressed in inscriptions (but not the earliest) by an additional с or s; as SACXO or SAXSO for ; VCXOR or VXSOR for ; CONIVNCX or CONIVNXS for ; even both sounds are sometimes thus expressed, VICXSIT for.

Letter

 * 1) the 24th letter of the Norwegian alphabet

Usage notes
Mostly used in loan words and foreign names. Also used in old inscriptions and texts instead of ks.

Usage notes

 * 1) The fifth letter of the Somali alphabet, which follows Arabic abjad order. It is preceded by J and followed by KH.

Etymology
. Each pronunciation has a different source:
 * Filipino alphabet pronunciation is influenced by.
 * Abecedario pronunciation is from.

Usage notes

 * This letter is mostly used only in proper nouns, unadapted loanwords, or Spanish-based spellings.
