Samekh or samech is the fifteenth letter of the Semitic abjads, including Phoenician sāmek 𐤎, Hebrew sāmeḵ , Aramaic samek 𐡎, and Syriac semkaṯ ܣ. Samekh is the only letter of the Semitic abjad that has no surviving descendant in the Arabic alphabet; however, it was present in the Nabataean alphabet, the Arabic alphabet's immediate predecessor, as the letter simkath , which was related to the Ancient North Arabian 𐪏‎‎‎ and South Arabian . The numerical value of samekh is 60.

Samekh是许多闪米特字母表中的第十五个字母,包括腓尼基字母、希伯来字母ס‎及亚兰字母,发音为/s/。 在阿拉伯字母表中并没有相应的字母。发/s/的阿拉伯字母是源自腓尼基字母而来的,并取代了Samekh在阿拉伯传统字母表中的位置。 腓尼基字母还演变为了希腊字母Ξ、西里尔字母Ѯ。
