Sampi

(Redirected from Sampi (letter))


Sampi (Upper case Ϡ, lower case ϡ) is an obsolete letter of the Greek alphabet and has a numeric value of 900. The name "sampi" seems to come from [o]sàn pî: "like a pi." Another name formerly used for this archaic letter was Disigma because of the phoneme it represented, a /ss/ or /ks/.
