		Rix (203) claims that the sound values of those letters in Latin are to be attributed to Greek influence, the letters themselves were probably all present when the Romans took over the alphabet from the Etruscans (Wachter 33).
		Jensen (521) notes that the letters C, K, Q were originally used in Latin according to Etruscan usage: C in front of /e, i/; K in front of /a/; Q in front of /u, o/.
		The letters thus stand for different allophones of /k/ (in the case of Latin, also /g/ and probably the phonemes /k_w/ and /g _w/ in the case of QU and GU).

		Another example of a problem is the Hebrew letter "taw", which the scholars say is pronounced as T or Th depending on the "points".
		But there is another letter "teth", which is also pronounced like T. It would be absurd for "taw" to be pronounced the same as "teth", because the writer would just use the other letter.
		The modern Hebrew scholars claim that the Hebrew letter "heth" is pronounced in that manner, but this letter corresponds to the Greek letter "eta", which seems to be pronounced as A-long.

	Sorting the letter ÞORN
		A derived letter is one which is, in terms of its historical development, based on one or more other Latin characters, whether by some deformation of the character itself, or by the addition of one or more modifying marks or signs.
		The position for ÞORN should either be as a separate letter after Z, or as a separate letter after T and before U. These two are the historical options for all languages in which ÞORN was actually used.
		We recommend that ÞORN be sorted as a separate letter after Z. This practice was described in the 11th century by Byrhtferð for English and prescribed in the 12th century by the First Grammarian for Icelandic.
