When I was in class 7, I used to ask a lot of questions……! One day, I asked my English Teacher, “Why do we ignore some letters in pronunciation eg. the letter H……. in Hour, Honour……etc…….?????? My English Teacher said, “We are not ignoring them; they’re considered silent”.
(I was even more confused…..?????) During the lunch break, my Teacher gave me her packed lunch and asked me to heat it in the Cafeteria in the Cafeteria. I ate all the food and returned her the empty container…..!!!!!!! My English Teacher: What happened? I told you to go and HEAT my food, you are returning me an empty container. I replied, “Madam, I thought ‘H’ was silent. Dedicated to all English Teachers.
