Is the " L " silent in word calm and palm and balm in American accent?? 
Because I am pretty sure it is so in British accent.

Answer

I'm in the US, and like Chris, I've heard the words pronounced both with and without the L sound.  I pronounce the L.

Answer

Your correct- they are pronounced like carm parm and barm
