Where the last root consonant is a shin, , its typical dot serves as the holam of the preceding consonant (see pt N-t020).
One of the most common cases is the construct form of the number 3:
שְׁלשׁ (מֵאוֹת) | שלוש (מאות)
----- three (hundred) (Ezr 2:17שָׁלשׁ
----- three (Amo 4:8(כִּ)פְּגשׁ | (כ)פגוש
----- as) to meet (Jer 41:6פָּגַשׁ
----- to) meet
