Cedilla originates from a cursive form of Z.[1] Note that the cedilla may be confused with ogonek ˛ or comma below ◌̦. In some fonts, the cedilla together with some letters may look identical to the comma. In Romanian, the letters Șș and Țț are actually supposed to have a comma below and not a cedilla, while in most other languages Şş and Ţţ are supposed to have cedillas.

| Usage | Language | Letters | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Disambiguation of letter with several uses | Catalan | Çç /s/ | Çç is used before Aa, Oo, Uu, or word-finally, and stands for /s/. Cc without cedilla would stand for /k/ in those positions. Intervocalic Çç is pronunced [s], while intervocalic Ss is [z].[2] |
| Palatal consonant | Latgalian, Latvian | Ģģ /ɟ/, Ķķ /c/, Ļļ /ʎ/, Ņņ /ɲ/ | |
| Livonian | Ḑḑ /ɟ/, Ļļ /ʎ/, Ņņ /ɲ/, Ţţ /c/ | ||
| Palatalized consonant | Livonian | Ŗŗ /rʲ/ | |
| Postalveolar consonant | Turkish | Çç /tʃ/, Şş /ʃ/ | Note that the cedilla in Çç actually distinguishes voicing from Cc /dʒ/, not position. |
