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."
French has silent letters because the language has evolved over time, incorporating words from different origins. These silent letters often reflect the word's history or original pronunciation in another language.
