October Contest

James LeVeque of Troy, Alabama, is the September contest winner – Congratulations!

It's fall! Another word for fall is “autumn”--pronounced AH tuhm. The N is “silent”--there is no ending N sound.

Now, Here’s the Contest!

Email us any word that has a silent N. (Hint: Several words, like autumn, ending with the letter -mn have silent N sounds.)
