<h1>K</h1> <Xpage=808>

<hw>K</hw><def>, (<?/), the eleventh letter of the English alphabet, is nonvocal consonant. The form and sound of the letter <hwf>K</hwf> are from the Latin, which used the letter but little except in the early period of the language. It came into the Latin from the Greek, which received it from a Ph\'d2nician source, the ultimate origin probably being Egyptian,. Etymologically <hwf>K</hwf> is most nearly related to <i>c</i>, <i>g</i>, <i>h</i> (which see).</def>

<note>In many words of one syllable <i>k</i> is used after <i>c</i>, as in <i>crack</i>, <i>check</i>, <i>deck</i>, being necessary to exhibit a correct pronunciation in the derivatives, <i>cracked</i>, <i>checked</i>, <i>decked</i>, <i>cracking</i>; since without it, <i>c</i>, before the vowels <i>e</i> and <i>i</i>, would be sounded like <i>s</i>. Formerly, <i>k</i> was added to <i>c</i> in certain words of Latin origin, as in <i>musick</i>, <i>publick</i>, <i>republick</i>; but now it is omitted.</note>
