sai-ens
The s and c in the beginning are pronounced together,but since you can't hear the c,you can say just for your convenience that the c is silent.
The word science has one silent consonant: the first c. Note that it also has one silent vowel: the second e.
The first letter C could be considered silent in the sense that it doesn't really change the pronunciation of the S that it follows; the final E is also silent. You could get the same pronunciation if the word was spelled siens. But we're used to science.
The moving Silent Running was released in the United States on March 10, 1972. It was a science fiction film that was distributed by Universal Pictures.
In "science", the first C is silent. When the C is followed by an E, I, or Y, then it'll become a soft C, which sounds like an S. However, in this case, if the soft C follows an S, then the C becomes silent as it sounds quite redundant. However, you'll notice that there's another C, which is the second C near the end, which is soft.Science=Silent CScience=Soft CNow, you'll notice about the C thing, but the first C is termed silent.
