 Dear Friends
 My query is, many a times, when 2 or more consonants come together
 then 1 consonant is unpronounced. Why?
 Then in the case, then in the words, “Honest, Honour  Xerox”, why “H
  X” are silent?
 Know, Knee, Knowledge, Knife, Psychology, Pneumonia, Physics,
 Philosophy have the first letter silent. In the words having ph
 together, is pronounced as f. Why is it so?

hello sesi,
Our earlier friends replied the same very particularly. As these words taken 
from many languages they pronunce like that. These are called silent 
letters. We can't give exact reason in particular. I too had a doubt 
previously when reffered some books, It noticed like that.
