/samech/ · 15/22
Samech takes 15th place in the alphabet and sounds like a soft hiss, 's'. In Lepdy, children tap it, hear it, and discover well-loved words that begin with it like 'sus' (horse), 'sefer' (book) and 'savta' (grandma).
Samech makes a hissing 's' sound as in 'sus' (horse), the same sound as the left-dotted Sin.
Samech is the 15th of the 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet.
