Shin (also spelled Šin (šīn) or Sheen) is the twenty-first and penultimate letter of the Semitic abjads, including Phoenician šīn 𐤔, Hebrew šīn ש, Aramaic šīn 𐡔, Syriac šīn ܫ, and Arabic sīn س[a] and šīn ش[b].[c]
The Phoenician letter gave rise to the Greek Sigma (Σ) (which in turn gave Latin S and the German letter ẞ and Cyrillic С), and the letter Sha in the Glagolitic and Cyrillic scripts (&sq=Avicii&lang=en&file=File:Glagolitic_sha.svg){kind=small}
, Ш).
The South Arabian and Ethiopian letter Śawt is also cognate.
