The letters that go silent (and why it's not your fault) English spelling lies to you. Some letters just sit there on the page and make no sound at all — and the words look harder than they sound. There are three easy patterns to spot: At the start of a word 
- I know the answer. You dialled the wrong number. At the end of a word 
- Climb the stairs. No doubt about it. The lazy "l" — it vanishes before certain sounds.
- Let's go for a quiet walk. I'll talk to you later. Stay calm. Try this: say "I know the answer, no doubt about it" out loud. How many silent letters can you hear disappearing?

In your sentence, I don’t hear the K in “know”, the W in “answer”, and the D in “doubt”. Also—and that goes without saying—the R in “answer” is not pronounced, either. Lovely British accent, by the way.✨ Thanks, Anna!
