-Græko-Latina uses the 26 standard letters of the Latin alphabet with the addition of æ and œ, which may be written as ae and oe if it's more convenient.  All letters have their IPA values except c, q, and x, which are /t͡s or t͡ʃ/, /kʷ/, and /ʃ/ respectively.  Four digraphs (ai, au, eu, oi) make the implied diphthong, and ch, rh, and th have their Greek pronunciations (/x/, /r̥/, and /θ/, respectively).  Q does not pair with u, as in most European languages, as this is redundant.
+Græko-Latina uses the 26 standard letters of the Latin alphabet with no extra characters.  All letters have their IPA values except c, q, and x, which are /t͡s or t͡ʃ/, /kʷ/, and /ʃ/ respectively.  Four digraphs (ai, au, eu, oi) make the implied diphthong.  Q does not pair with u, as in most European languages, as this is redundant.
 This way the letters and digraphs have as close as possible to their pan-European values as possible while also being phonetic.
