What does an S sound like in Swahili?

The "S" sound in Swahili is similar to the English "S" sound, but with a slightly more forward placement of the tongue. This means you'll feel a slight pressure on the front of your mouth as you pronounce it, almost as if you're about to make a "th" sound.

Here are some examples:

* "Samahani" (Sorry) - The "S" here is very similar to the English "S".

* "Sisi" (We) - The "S" here has a slightly more forward tongue placement than the English "S", but it's not dramatically different.

* "Sawa" (Okay) - The "S" here has a more noticeable forward tongue placement, but it's still quite close to the English "S".

To get a better understanding, you can listen to Swahili speakers pronounce words with "S" sounds. There are many resources online, such as Swahili language learning websites or YouTube videos.
