Does the word donkey have a silent e?

No, the 'e' sound in the word the is not silent. It is normally pronounced as the indeterminate vowel sound known as the schwa. When it occurs before a vowel sound it is pronounced with a long 'e'.A silent 'e' is not pronounced at all. For example, the 'e' at the end of the word blame is silent: the last phoneme in the word is the 'm'. The 'e' in the could never be silent, as it is the only vowel in the word.
