someone have a PNG for this? 132.205.15.43 00:15, 24 Nov 2004 (UTC)
I may have. And i believe this is called Stigma not San Link is: http://www.jesus8880.com/chapters/gematria/greek-alphabet.htm (is the letter's look)
How is this letter distinguishable from mu?? Georgia guy 14:33, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
Perhaps in Windows Vista it might. Anyone know this?? Georgia guy 01:26, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
From what I can tell, the difference between Mu and San is the middle bridge part of Mu extends farther down than in San. Kind of hard to explain, but it's a subtle difference. Correct me if I'm wrong.
I'm wondering, is it known what sound the Etruscan version of San represented? It's transliterated as an S with an accent, and according to the Ś page, that letter represents a different sound in Polish and some other languages. So I'm a bit confused about that... 151.202.87.133 ( talk) 23:32, 16 September 2010 (UTC)

Hello, from the Ancient‑Greek studies at dis‑tance, that I have per‑formed in Belgium in 2012, the "Smooth‑breathing" and "Rough‑breathing" serves to in‑dicate & marking the ab‑olition of the archaic letter Di‑gamma Ϝ [v] (Smooth) or Sigma/San Σ/Ϻ [ʃ/s] (Rough) in the word, the Ϝ or Σ/Ϻ can be at beginning or middle, it de‑pend of the position of the breathing. {Di‑gamma Ϝ {also called ϜΑΥ : vau/vaw} is V be‑cause W was Υ/ΟΥ [u/w] from Phoenician 𐤅 [u], Ϝ don't share shape and sound with Υ / 𐤅, after some‑time Υ be‑came later [y] and [i] in Modern‑Greek ; Pamphylian Digamma/Wau/Waw Ͷ is [w], also Ϝ [v] be‑came Latin F [f], V & F are labio‑dental sound and can be con‑fused, when W & F have nothing in com‑mon, so Latin letter F sound [f] come from Ancient‑Greek letter Ϝ sound [v]...}.
In the French pre‑cise book of Ancient‑Greek "Le Grand Bailly" or "Abrégé Bailly" breathing (spirit in French) are re‑pre‑sented in the words and in the de‑finition, in [RAC : racine/root] Section is ad‑ded the original word with Di‑gamma Ϝ or Sigma/San Σ/Ϻ. In older editions of "Le Grand Bailly" or "Abrégé Bailly", the "Table of roots" (which is no longer pre‑sent in the new editions) speci‑fies the list of roots using Di‑gamma Ϝ [v] & Sigma/San Σ/Ϻ [ʃ/s], yet in Wikipedia English or French, no one mention that the "Smooth breathing" and "Rough breathing" was used for Di‑gamma Ϝ & Sigma/San Σ/Ϻ removing, why ??? They talk only about a‑spired H (no one can make a‑spired H be‑fore a RHO, it's im‑possible), so it's wrong... Also In Wiktionary page for Ancient‑Greek words using breathing, the W/V or S/SH is never mentioned in "Archaic pro‑nunciation", like for ex‑ample :
{I don't use ac‑cent acute / grave in Ancient‑Greek words be‑cause at that time they didn't ex‑ist, also writing Ancient‑Greek word in minuscule is an error, be‑cause at that epoch only capital script with‑out ac‑cent ex‑isted, minuscule should be used only for Modern‑Greek in your Wiktionary or Wikipedia...}.

Currently, the fact that San resembles the rune Ehwaz in appearance is not mentioned. Should it be added? Thorn (letter) and Sho (letter) articles do mention a similar case about each other.-- Adûnâi ( talk) 23:04, 20 February 2017 (UTC)
Why does this article feature MSPaint-quality drawings of photographs rather than legitimate photographs? There is no way to tell if these drawings are authentic without including the photograph, so why not just use the photograph, and add the drawing for clarity if the photograph is difficult to see well? Surely the copyright on ancient Phoenician art has expired by now. TricksterWolf ( talk) 00:51, 11 May 2021 (UTC)
