TITLE: MASTERING SILENT LETTERS IN ENGLISH PRONUNCIATION
Silent letters are letters in a word that are not pronounced when the word is spoken. They are often used to indicate the word's origin or to differentiate between homophones. Silent letters can be found in both vowels and consonants.
Some examples of words with silent letters include "knight," "gnome," "honor," "debt," and "subtle."
Ejemplo 1

- Pronunciar la palabra: /naɪt/.
- Comparar con la escritura: k-n-i-g-h-t.
- Notar que 'k' al inicio no se oye, y 'gh' tampoco se pronuncia.
