Not sure which is the most prevalent, but here are some: the letter "g" which is silent when followed by an "n' at the beginning or end of words such as "gnash" and "gnome" and "benign" or resign". Not however when the syllables separate the letters, i.e., "dragnet". Another would be the silent "b" for words ending in "mb" like "bomb" "comb" Or the silent "c" in words / syllables beginning with "sc" as in "science" and "ascend" and "scissors". Seems like this might be the most frequent. And in American English, an "H" starting some words and secondary syllables, such as "honor" or "exhibit" or "exhaust" or "graham" Then there is the silent "k" when followed by "n" as in "knot, Knowledge, knives" Words ending in 'mn' -- silent 'n', like in "limn" "autumn" "condemn" Words with initial "wh" -- silent "H" -- "where, when, who" and with initial "wr" -- silent "w" -- as in "write" and 'wrench" Silent "t" for words ending in "stle" as in "castle" or "trestle"
The silent letter in "gnarled" is the "g." In this word, the "g" is followed by the letter "n," which creates a unique sound where the "g" is not pronounced. This silent letter is a common occurrence in English words and can affect pronunciation and spelling.
gnat, gnome
"Sign" has a silent G because there's a GN bond at the end of the word. The reason for the silent G here is to make the I sounds long. The I or O can sometimes be long when they come before 2 consonants and the GN bond is an example of making a long I sound.
Some examples of words that begin with a silent "g" are gnome, gnaw, and gnash.
