Etymology 3
, though it is generally agreed upon that it first appeared in print around the 1880s. At least four theories persist:
 * It came naturally from the word amateur. Deemed likely by Hendrickson (1997), but then the question would be why it took so long to pop up. He rejects the folk etymology of Cockney slang hamateur because it originated in American English.
 * From the play Hamlet, where the title character was often played poorly and/or in an exaggerated manner. Also deemed likely by Hendrickson, though he raises the issue that the term would have likely been around earlier if this were case.
 * From the minstrel's practice of using ham fat to remove heavy black makeup used during performances.
 * Shortened from, said to derive from the 1863 minstrel show song The Ham-fat Man. William and Mary Morris (1988) argue that it's not known whether the song inspired the term or the term inspired the song, but that they believe the latter is the case.

Usage notes
The verb in Navajo incorporates information about person, and many sentences may thus not have explicit independent pronouns. For instance: Both sentences are grammatically complete, and mean essentially the same thing: you are at home. The verb naniná is in the second-person form, so the pronoun can be safely omitted, as in the first sentence. This is similar to pronoun dropping in other languages where the verb specifies person, such as Spanish. Meanwhile, the explicit use of ni in the second sentence emphasizes that the speaker is talking about you. This can be thought of as roughly equivalent to the use of emphasis in English: while the first sentence comes across as you're at home, the second one is more like you, you're at home.

 * Ni éí hooghandi naniná.

The, derives from  (East Norse variant of ) from , from. Compare 🇨🇬.

Pronoun

 * 1) you (plural nominative)
 * 2) you (second-person singular nominative formal) (capitalized Ni, rare in modern use)
 * 3)  title used when addressing a person of lower social rank
 * 4)  by some considered a respectful alternative to , especially when addressing customers or the elderly
 * 1)  by some considered a respectful alternative to , especially when addressing customers or the elderly
 * 1)  by some considered a respectful alternative to , especially when addressing customers or the elderly

Usage notes
Both and  are second person plural forms, but can also be used as formal second person singular, as in the German  or French. It may sometimes also be capitalized (Ni, Er). The courteous "ni" was introduced in Swedish around the year 1900 as an alternative to the more complicated pattern of addressing others in the third person singular by their appropriate titles. This required knowledge of social status, occupation, educations, etc. with terms like or, , , , etc. However this "ni-reform" was not well liked and when authority came to use the word  to their subordinates the word got a condescending undertone. Interestingly enough the older, from which was originally formed, was used alongside  all along (and is still in use in some dialects) but never got the condescending undertone that  got. This was all phased out gradually during the 1960s and 1970s in the so-called du-reformen, (“the you-reform”). In contemporary Swedish, is universal and may be used to address anyone, regardless of differences in social status or age.

Ni is used occasionally by younger speakers to address customers in order to be formal and polite. However this is often seen as being overly formal and too contrived, even condescending and insulting, especially by older speakers. Formality and politeness in modern Swedish is not conveyed through specific grammatical forms, but primarily done through indirectness, manners of speaking or various other behaviors.

 * In literary registers, may be added (as, with soft mutation) for emphasis, so ni chlywais i ddim may mean either “I did not hear anything” or simply “I did not hear”. In the colloquial language,  is omitted but the mixed mutation remains, giving chlywais i ddim (“I didn't hear”).

Etymology
From ⟨ꝣ⟩, the Visigothic form of the letter z, which resembled a C with a subscript z.

Symbol

 * 1)  a voiceless palatal fricative.
 * 2)  -fricated release of a plosive (e.g.  or ), sometimes implying an affricate (e.g. ⟨cᶜ̧⟩ for ); -coloring; or a weak, fleeting or epenthetic.

Usage notes
A superscript ⟨ᶜ̧⟩ needs to be composed with a cedilla diacritic: U+1D9C ᶜ|⟨ᶜ⟩ + U+0327 ⟨◌̧⟩.

Usage notes

 * Used chiefly in recent loanwords and foreign proper nouns.
 * It is not considered a distinct letter, but a variant of.

Letter

 * 1) c cedilla

Letter

 * 1) "c ", the letter c with a cedilla

Usage notes

 * ⟨ç⟩ is not considered a distinct letter, but a variant of ⟨c⟩. Accordingly it has the same value in alphabetical orders.
 * It is used when a ⟨c⟩ is pronounced before ⟨a⟩, ⟨o⟩ or ⟨u⟩. This happens mostly in derivatives and inflections. For example,  derived from, or , inflected form of . One of the fairly rare counterexamples would be.

Alternative forms

 * tc

Etymology
+.

Letter

 * 1) "c cedilha" (the letter c with a cedilla)

Usage notes
Ç is not considered a distinct letter, but a variant of C. It is used where a  pronounced /s/ occurs before ,  or  (due to etymology or inflection).

Pronunciation

 * or silent.

Letter

 * 1) the letter “e” in words when it must be pronounced separately and not associated with preceding letter. E.g. “-gue” is normally pronounced  but “-guë” is pronounce  (like in, ); “œ” is normally pronounced  or  but “oë” is pronounced  (like in , )

Usage notes
It can distinguish certain words that are otherwise homophones in the current standard (so it can act like a phoneme), e.g. : and ; :, , , and.

Letter

 * 1) The open-mid central unrounded vowel as used in the Gherdëina variant of Ladin.

Etymology
The letter ë indicates the sound, which derives from Proto-Germanic *e (as in ) or *i (as in ), distinguished from e (also spelt ẹ), which usually derives from Proto-Germanic *a.

Letter

 * 1) ''A letter sometimes used in normalised Middle High German spelling. It is optional in editions and never found in actual manuscripts.

Usage notes

Letter

 * 1)  ''Letter used for transcription of  Ё / ё.

Etymology 2

Etymology
.

Conjunction
conjunction

 * 1) ; and

Particle
particle

Usage notes

 * In Tagalog and its standardized form Filipino, ë is used to represent the schwa, particularly in words originating from other Philippine languages, for instance Maranao (Mëranaw), Pangasinan, Ilocano, and Ibaloi. Before introduction of this letter, the schwa was ambiguously represented by a or e.
 * Writing the diaeresis is recommended but not required as long as the reader is aware that the unaccented form is supposed to sound like a schwa (/ə/).
 * The use of the diaeresis to represent the central vowel schwa is possibly inspired by the use of the diaeresis in the IPA to represent centralization.
