A
Qubee letter A
Sounds like a short ah, as in again.
A is letter 1 of the 31 Qubee letters of Afaan Oromo. It is one letter with one sound, so a child learns it once and traces it as one shape.

Teaching A to a child
Say the sound first, then let the child trace it. Open your mouth wide and say ah. Ask for one more word that starts with A — a name in the family counts — and the letter becomes a game rather than a lesson.
In the app the whole stop takes a minute or two: trace A, hear it, pick it out of four letters, then watch the hut on the road raise its flag.
