Z
(zē; in England commonly, and in America sometimes, zĕd; formerly, also, ĭz′zĕrd)
Z, the twenty-sixth and last letter of the English alphabet, is a vocal consonant. It is taken from the Latin letter Z, which came from the Greek alphabet, this having it from a Semitic source. The ultimate origin is probably Egyptian. Etymologically, it is most closely related to s, y, and j; as in glass, glaze; E. yoke, Gr. [GREEK], L. yugum; E. zealous, jealous. See Guide to Pronunciation, §§ 273, 274.
Webster 1828 Edition
Z
Z
, the last letter of the English Alphabet, is a sibilant articulation, and is merely a vocal S. It bears the same relation to s, as v does to f. With us it has not a compound sound, nor is it a double consonant, as in the Italian and German. It is as simple in its sound as S.As a numeral, Z stands for 2000, and with a dash over it, Z, for 2,000,000. It is pronounced zee.
