I've always wondered what purpose silent letters serve.

And how do they decide what letter to use? Like the word pneumatic or opossum, why have a "p" or "o" at the start of those words?

There has to be a logical reason, right? And why use those letters?

Since it's silent, does what letter is used really important? Couldn't a word like "pneumonia" be spelled "fneumonia" or "hneumonia" since the first letter is silent anyway?

How do you pronounce this animal's name?



I've always heard it pronounced "possum". But it's name is actually Opossum.
