The Letter K
The letter K makes only one sound; the sound heard in the words kiss, monkey, and make. This consonant sound ranks in the not so common category along with its counterparts: h, j and w. In some words, the letter K can be silent; this occurs when the letter K is paired with the letter N, e.g., knock, knot & know.
