Abstract

Orthography is a part of language study that deals with letter and spelling and a graphic representation of spoken sounds. This paper tries to present a contrastive analysis between orthography and pronunciation of words that contain silent letters in Arabic and English based on script compilations. Based on the circumstance that Arabic and English have their writing system that different from each other, it is found that both of these languages have similarities in the field of silent letters.
