H is the eighth letter in the Latin alphabet. Its name in both British an American English is spelled aitch (pronounced /eɪtʃ/) in most dialects, though in Irish, Singaporean, South Indian English and very occasionally British English it is haitch /heɪtʃ/. (See the discussion below on the two pronunciations of the name of this letter.) In the International Phonetic Alphabet, this symbol is used to represent two sounds. Its lowercase form, [h], represents the voiceless glottal fricative or 'aspirate', and its small capital form, [ʜ], represents the voiceless epiglottal fricative.
