The History Of The Letter S

The letter "S" comes from the Greek alphabet, and is one of the most used letters in the English language. The Egyptian Hierogylfic symbol for the letter "s" is a sword. It is considered to be the "voiceless sibilant" because it really doesn't have a sound. The shape of the letter interest me the most. I think it's the most versatile letter in the alphabet. The animation of this letter will delight others by showing how the letter "S" has a natural movement to it.
