Siin and shiin

Spot the teeth and hear s versus sh.

Look at the letter then pronounce it

The teeth remain recognizable in connected forms. Three dots distinguish shiin. A joining stroke shown with ـ is a display aid, not another letter. Form drills here preview the connected shapes; the reading unit explains when to use each one.
