Extra letters?

So today is one of those silly, not so serious posting kinda days.

Today, I wanna talk about words that have extra (unpronounced) letters in them.

By the way...my spell check is telling me that "unpronounced" isn't a word...but it's the word that I want to use, so guess what...TODAY...it's a word!

For the purpose of today's post, we'll use the word RECEIPT as our example. Now for those who know me, you know how I pronounce this word.

REE-SEE-PUH-TUH

That's right!

I mean really...why have that "P" in there if you're not gonna pronounce it? Otherwise...get it outta there.

So how 'bout we have some fun with this one today.

Let the DIALOGUE begin! How many words can YOU think of that have letters that aren't pronounced? I don't think we'll include the ones that have vowels because I think we understand why those are needed. But for the words with extra consonants...let'er rip!

Talk to me!

Til next time...
