S and Z sounds
The S and Z sounds are often studied as a pair because they sound very similar, and both sounds are made in the same part of the mouth. There are some differences. The S sound is voiceless, and the Z sound is voiced. However, in Spanish is very different the sound of these letters, for this reason for learners at the moment they try to speak make a different sound of the Z by the inflections of the tongue mother.
The voiceless (unvoiced) S sound (IPA symbol: s) s:(sit, box, cats)
When making the S and Z sounds, air is pushed down the center of your tongue and between the tip of your tongue and your top teeth. The movement of the air makes the S and Z sounds.
The voiced Z sound (IPA symbol: z) can be found in English words such as z:(zip, buzz, boys)
