Wow! And I thought I was already strange when I decided to use "c" for /S/ (and
only /S/, even in front of back vowels) in Reman. But well, in this case the
strangeness comes more from the factr that it's supposed to be a Romance
language, and yet has quite a strange orthography (imagine a Romance language
where you can write things like 'qe' :) ).
