Hello. You have to use Debounce. Here's an example:

local CanPlay = true

script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	if CanPlay then
		CanPlay = false
		YourSound:Play()
		wait(5)
		CanPlay = true
	end
end)

Debounce is like a delay. The Script will not continue until the debounce condition is met.

make a Debounce stored on a variable, something like this:

local played = false
script.Parent.Touched:Connect(function(hit)
	if played == false then
		workspace.Sound:Play()
		played = true
		wait(2) -- change this for the cooldown of it
		played = false
	end
end)

Pretty basic. Hope I helped.
