In the word 'scent', is 's' silent or 'c'?
The word 'scent' and its pronunciation is a bit tough topic. And if I ask you that is the 's' in it silent or the 'c' in it, believe me, you will be unanswerable. But don't worry, just chill and keep reading...
If either of the letters 's' or 'c' wouldn't have been silent, it would have sounded with the starting of the word 'sceptic'. So then...
The word 'scent' was originally called as 'sent' in French and Latin. Then English writers decided to add an extra 'c' for... better sounding (probably). And the word 'scent' was derived. But the pronunciation remained the same. Thus the letter 'c' is silent.

I thought it would be better not to delete or revamp these posts, even if they suck. The bitter truth is that old works always suck, but I take that as a positive tool to convey that I am growing. Besides there's no better way to showcase my journey without these old, messy, poorly written posts!
