"Wrong" is one of them.

In the word "wrestle," the silent letters are the "w" at the beginning and the "t" in the middle. The "w" is silent, and the "t" is followed by the letter "l," which makes it silent in this case. So when pronouncing "wrestle," you would say it as "res-uhl."
Ah, what a delightful question! Yes, there are indeed two words in the English language that have a silent "w." One is "wrist," where the "w" is pronounced like an "r," and the other is "wrestle," where the "w" is silent and the word is pronounced as "resle." Isn't language just fascinating?

In English, the letter "w" can sometimes be silent in words borrowed from other languages, like "sword" or "answer". Similarly, in some dialects or accents, the "w" in words like "wreck" or "write" may be pronounced more softly or skipped altogether.
Some words with a silent "w" include 'wrestle,' 'wrath,' 'wrong,' 'wrest.'
No, but in words ending in "W", it often sounds like a vowel.
