He is the fifth letter of the Semitic abjads, including Arabic hāʾ ه, Aramaic hē 𐡄, Hebrew hē ה, Phoenician hē 𐤄, and Syriac hē ܗ. Its sound value is the voiceless glottal fricative ([h]).
The proto-Canaanite letter gave rise to the Greek Epsilon Ε ε,[1] Etruscan &sq=Google&lang=en&file=File:Alfabeto_camuno-e.svg){kind=small}
𐌄, Latin E, Ë and Ɛ, and Cyrillic Е, Ё, Є, Э, and Ҩ. He, like all Phoenician letters, represented a consonant, but the Latin, Greek and Cyrillic equivalents have all come to represent vowel sounds.
