the ^ replaces the s in words that originate from latin... so hospitalia = hôpital

Asulot :
When they borrow Latin words to make them French they put a hat on vowel before the s and remove the s. Ahhh so confusing. Just perfect!

It actually came from old French, which did have an s in the word, but people would sometimes forget to write it and would add it on top of the o, it-

Gourloup :
The accent is on the o to indicate an “s” was present in the original root but was removed after

Actually it was put instead of the missing 's'. L'accent circonflexe is put to indicate there is a missing letter in general.

That's actually quite useful when english people want to learn french... more than 30% of the english words come from old french so if you know that 1

The hat means that there was an s after the O a long time ago.

Astrid :
No because the hat is there because in ancient French, we took out the s and put a hat on top of if for the prononciation

The hat is there to show that there was an S there before like in Hospital, Hostel.... But why a hat, that I don't know 😆

The „hat“ is there to remind people that there was a letter that got removed. Or so I’ve learned.

my CM2 teacher told me the ^ went where there used to be an s. made sense at the time

Apparently it is used in French to remind that the s was removed, in Sicilian we also have it but it is used when vocals are fused

The “hat” on letters typically represents a hidden s after the letter, so Hôpital, is literally Hospital

Alexis :
It’s the opposite…. 25% of English words come from French, and actually in ancient French it was called hospital in French but the ô replaced the s

The hat is because their used to be an S, it’s basically an artefact of etymology
