4. 7.

Audio: 

This letter is not a sound. The number 7 is used to indicate a stop in the vocal chord. This stop is produced before every initial vowel sound just like it would be in the English language as well, 7a, 7e, 7i, 7o, 7u; since it is not necessary to place before each vowel, it is not used unless for clarity. However, it must be used if a stop is needed in the middle or at the end of a word.
