IPA: ʧ

From UniLang Wiki

ʧ stands for a voiceless postalveolar affricate in IPA, that is a t immediately followed by a ʃ.

It is pronounced like the CH in "change".

The same sound is written Č in many Slavonic languages, Ч in the Cyrillic alphabet, Ĉ in Esperanto, C/CE/CI in Italian and Romanian, CZ in Polish, CH in Spanish, and KJ/KE/KI/KEY in Faroese. In Portuguese, it is spelt TCH (which appears only in borrowed words); in standard Brazilian Portuguese, though, that is also the sound of T in the syllable TI.
