Question

Choose the group of words that has a silent K from the four options.

  1. Knife, know, knock, knee, knot
  2. Handkerchief, work, crack, park, sky
  3. Kick, kid, kiss, kill, king

hintHint:

Silent letters are those letters which must be included in the appropriate spelling of that word, but have no distinct sound in the pronunciation of that word. In short, silent letters are only written but not uttered.

The correct answer is: Knife, know, knock, knee, knot


    The correct answer is "Knife, know, knock, knee, knot".
    Among the given options, only the word set "Knife, know, knock, knee, knot" has a common opening letter "k" which has no contribution to the pronunciation of the respective words. All these words begin with the opening sound "n", though the first letter "k" must be incorporated in the correct spellings of these words. So, the correct answer is "Knife, know, knock, knee, knot".

    How many silent letters do I have in the word KNOWLEDGE?

    Silent letters appear in words but are not spoken and cannot be associated with any particular sound a word makes. The two main categories of silent letters are auxiliary and dummy.
    Silent auxiliary letters combine with other letters to create a particular sound. Exocentric and endocentric pairings are among them. Exocentric combinations produce a noise unrelated to either of the silent letter pair's two letters. This can be heard when the sound 'ph' creates the letter 'f.' It's crucial to be aware of these members of the silent letter family, even though they aren't always thought of as true silent letters.
    Contrarily, endocentric combinations result in a sound that resembles one of the letters in a pair.
