Ṭet
The 1901 Jewish Encyclopedia
Ninth letter of the Hebrew alphabet. The signification of its name is uncertain. Its sound is that of an emphatic surd dental (palatal English "t"). It occurs only as a radical, seldom as a formative element. It sometimes interchanges with the dentals ד and ת and with the sibilant צ. As a numeral, "ṭet" (in the later period) has the value 9.
