C stands for /tʃ/
I think this is unadvisable — it's /k~s/ (or /k~s̪/ or /k~θ/, depending on dialect) in both English and Spanish, and I think Mandarin uses it for /tsʰ/; these aren't languages whose orthographies I think it advisable to make a potential learner fight.
Also, I just kind-of hate using "c" for affricates.
Anyway, that isn't what you asked for:
1. SETRANTE (either "seventeen" or "seventy"?)
2. TERIK (no idea)
3. URETU (no idea)
4. SEPRUS ("separate")
5. EPLAGKE (no idea)
6. KERAFTE ("crafted, created")
7. ESKERUTRAIWE (no idea, but probably a compound or inflection?)
8. MULSIYA ("emulsion")
9. SETREGFE (no idea)
10. EKESPOSE ("exposé" or "to expose")
11. KERESNAYARESKE (not sure, but "-eske" reminds me of "-esque")
12. ETWOF (no idea)
13. ESKERIC (no idea, but "-ric" might be English -rich, German -reich, Dutch -rijk?; had to think for a moment, though, it looks too similar to the adjective ending "-ic" to parse as anything else)
14. PALFE (no idea)
15. PELOT ("pellet")
16. KAREMEN ("song", "charm", "magic", probably an adaptation of Latin "carmen")
17. EKRASTE ("aross")
18. SELPISTAN ("Iran, Persia", reminds me vaguely of "Selucid" + "-stan")
19. INSETRAKTE (some sort of tract?)
20. ESPERIGKEL (something to do with hope? probably an inflected verbal form?)
Odd number list:
21. ETRIK (not sure, but "-ik" is probably an adjectival suffix)
22. SEKRIC (probably a country name)
23. EPLOT ("explode")
24. PELAGKE ("skateboard")
25. ESTEREGFE (something to do with strength?)
26. KERASTE ("crest")
27. ULTU ("final")
28. TEWOF ("two of")
29. ESTERANTE ("in front of the east"?)
30. MURESYA (probably hard for East Asian speakers to pronounce, whatever it is)
31. ESPERUS ("hope", alternatively "summoned beast in a JRPG", or "user of psychic powers"; possibly also "dawn")
32. KERESNAYALSEK (no idea)
33. PAREFE ("paraffin")
34. EKRAFTE ("to build")
35. SEREPISTAN ("country of surreptitious people")
36. SEKRUTRAIWE (no idea)
37. EKSEPOSE ("expose")
38. SEPRIGKEL ("mirror")
39. INESTERAKTE (something to do with land?)
40. KALMEN ("to calm, to becalm", alternately "squid"
Some answers may sound sarcastic, but they're actually genuine. I feel unkind saying this, but I find the words opaque, the "c" (especially in the -ric(?) ending, which I want to read as -ic/-ique) and "g" painfully unintuitive (also they represent sounds that I wouldn't really think advisable in an auxiliary language), and the language overall rather ugly...
