Letter ‘t’ is silent in many English words such as: ‘listen, whistle. hustle, castle etc. Most students already know that.
Letter ‘t’ is also silent in many words of French origin pronounced with the diphthong /eɪ/at the end as in “day”.
( /e/+/i/)
Words like that include: ‘buffet, gourmet, ballet, valet etc..
Did you also know that letter ‘t’ is silent in ‘fasten’?
And that there is the /eɪ/ sound at the end of ‘resume’ as in; ‘Here is my resume.’
You have probably heard the phrase: ‘Ladies and Gentlemen please fasten your seat belts” many times but did not notice that letter ‘t’ was silent.
Maybe because you were more focused on fastening your seat belt! 
Good luck practicing guys!
