P| 16th letter of the English alphabet. In Semitic languages, in Greek, and in Latin, p had much the same sound as it normally has today in English when final, or when following s at the beginning of a word: the sound of an unvoiced bilabial plosive. In other positions in English, and especially when initial, p is aspirated. |
| The letter descended through the Greek, Etruscan, and Latin alphabets from the North Semitic pe, meaning ‘mouth’. |
p| In music, abbreviation for the instruction piano. |
