I'm sorry but this is simply false. Example in German, "die Hose", "der Sport" - s is spoken completely differently. Also, "die Schule" - sch is spoken (almost) the same as s in Sport. In Serbian/Croatian/Bosnian if you write "s" you say "s", no matter if it's first or second or third letter or if it's surrounded by "c" or "t" or "a" or whatever. Especially it's false in French with 17 different ways to write "e" or "o" even though it's spoken the same...
