If you find any more that I missed, please let me know. While searching the web for words-with-silent-letters, I often come across folks who claim that j is silent in words like "jalapeño" or "fajita." As in the name "Stejskal," though, I think it's just that you pronounce j differently in different languages. I'm still looking for the j that disappears completely. -Daniel Copy Link to Clipboard Share Post on Facebook Share Post on Twitter Share Post on Reddit Entire Thread Subject Posted By Posted Silent letters Joel 02/11/2013 5:20 PM Re: Silent letters LukeJavan8 02/11/2013 6:28 PM Re: Silent letters Buffalo Shrdlu 02/12/2013 2:03 AM Re: Silent letters danslos 02/12/2013 7:49 PM Re: Silent letters LukeJavan8 02/12/2013 11:20 PM Re: Silent letters danslos 02/13/2013 12:37 PM Re: Silent letters LukeJavan8 02/13/2013 6:10 PM Re: Silent letters danslos 02/13/2013 8:24 PM Re: Silent letters LukeJavan8 02/13/2013 9:43 PM Re: Silent letters Faldage 02/14/2013 12:33 AM Re: Silent letters Buffalo Shrdlu 02/14/2013 2:00 AM Re: Silent letters danslos 02/14/2013 5:02 PM Re: Silent letters LukeJavan8 02/14/2013 5:23 PM Re: Silent letters danslos 02/14/2013 6:17 PM Re: Silent letters Faldage 02/15/2013 1:04 AM Re: Silent letters danslos 02/15/2013 1:04 PM Re: Silent letters wgstoops 02/15/2013 4:37 PM Re: Silent letters LukeJavan8 02/15/2013 5:45 PM Moderated by  Jackie  Hop To General Topics ------  Information and announcements  Q&A about words  Wordplay and fun  Words and languages in schools  Miscellany  Weekly Themes  Looking for (writers, speakers,...
