S, 19th letter of the English alphabet. It first appeared in its modern form
in the Roman alphabet, as the equivalent of the Greek letter sigma, ultimately
derived from an Egyptian hieratic character based on the hieroglyph for an
inundated garden.
The s sound, technically known as a sibilant consonant, may be either
voiceless or voiced. The letter s is occasionally given the phonetic value
of sh or zh in words such as sure and treasure; it is silent in a few words,
including aisle and debris.
