Is t always silent in often?
The \t\ is silent. Why? Often has a medial /t/ that, like similar words such has “hasten” and “soften,” was once pronounced and is now typically silent. Unlike the similar words, pronouncing the “t” in “often” has returned in some modern usage.
Why do British people skip T?
We do pronounce T when it starts a word. When it’s in the middle of a word or at the end, it is sometimes changed into another sound. For example here in the north east of England it often becomes a glottal stop, so “total” is pronounced “to’al”. Some dialects change it into an R, so “get away” becomes “gerraway”.
Why do Brits pronounce TH as F?
So what the heck is it? Simply put, it’s what happens when speakers use the sounds /f/ or /v/ instead of TH. This results in words like “thing” becoming “fing,” or “brother” becoming “bruvver” — and it can also make “three” and “free” sound identical.
