What words have a silent i?

You're likely thinking about words with a silent e at the end, not i. A silent e at the end of a word often indicates that the preceding vowel has its long sound.

Here are some examples of words with a silent e:

* make

* hope

* bike

* use

* time

* name

* smile

* nice

There are very few words that actually have a silent i. These are typically found in older words of Latin or Greek origin and are not very common in everyday English.
