WHAT DOES SAMECH MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Samekh

Samekh or Simketh is the fifteenth letter in many Semitic alphabets, including Phoenician, Hebrew, and Aramaic, representing /s/. The Arabic alphabet, however, uses a letter based on Phoenician šin to represent /s/; however, that glyph takes Samekh's place in the traditional Abjadi order of the Arabic alphabet. The Phoenician letter gave rise to the Greek Xi.
