    No it is not, saying something while having no arguments at hand to support your point of view and furthermore postulate a theory like yours, well, that's imprudent at least.

    If you tell me you native tongue I surely can suggest a book about this topic.

    Why need a book? There isn't anyone in the world who'd transcribe a chi by a kh. Alcibiades14, while a Kappa might be best be transcribed as a k, and not as a c (like the k sound is written in latin). The c's in our Greek do not represent the k-sound of a kappa. It's the ch sound of the Greek letter chi, often transliterated as an x, which we transcribed as ch.

    Look here for a table containing the most common ways of transliterations of Greek to a Latin alphabet (this way you don't have to find yourself that book):
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transli...Latin_Alphabet
    Now the ch from arche represents the Chi of classical Greek, the third last letter from the first table. As you can see, it's transliterated and transcribed as a 'ch'.
