Talk a Lot Clear Alphabet Dictionary Silent Letters Here are some good examples of items in the dictionary which have silent letters. The Clear Alphabet ignores letters which are not pronounced. Silent letters often occur because the vowel letters in unstressed syllables are converted into schwa sounds when we pronounce them; or when double letters represent one consonant sound, e.g. “ff” for f , and so on. Note: reading this list out loud is a good way of testing students’ understanding of the use of the schwa sound in English pronunciation: Normal Spelling: CA Spelling: Silent Letter(s) (in spelling but not pronounced): autumn Or tm _______________________________________ build Bild _______________________________________ butter Bu t _______________________________________ candidate Kan d dt _______________________________________ cinema Si n m _______________________________________ criminal Kri m nl _______________________________________ customer Ku st m _______________________________________ debt Det _______________________________________ differ Di f _______________________________________ elephant E l fnt _______________________________________ escalator E sk lei t _______________________________________ giraffe j Rarf _______________________________________ gorilla g Ri l _______________________________________ guess Ges _______________________________________ illness Il ns _______________________________________ indicator In d kei t _______________________________________ knee Nee _______________________________________ manager Ma n j _______________________________________ mechanic m Ka nik _______________________________________ menopause Me n porz _______________________________________ minute Mi nit _______________________________________ muscle Mu sl _______________________________________ negative Ne g tiv _______________________________________ Norwich No rich _______________________________________ often O fn _______________________________________ orchestra Or k str _______________________________________ possible Po s bl _______________________________________ sausage So sij _______________________________________ school Skool _______________________________________ separation se p Rei shn _______________________________________ skeleton Ske l tn _______________________________________ sledge Slej _______________________________________ solicitor s Li s t _______________________________________ suggest s Jest _______________________________________ supporter s Por t _______________________________________ syllable Si l bl _______________________________________ terminal Ter m nl _______________________________________ thermometer tt Mo m t _______________________________________ together t Ge th _______________________________________ weather We th _______________________________________ what Wot _______________________________________ whatever wo Te v _______________________________________ whenever we Ne v _______________________________________ wrist Rist _______________________________________ wrong Rong _______________________________________ young Yung _______________________________________ Talk a Lot Clear Alphabet Dictionary English Banana.com 162
