Do you pronounce the word often with the t-sound? Or is the t-sound silent when you say this word? Which is better?
The word often is a fascinating example of language in the process of change. The Random House Dictionary states that the pronunciation of often without the t-sound gained favor with educated speakers in the 17th century. This has been the standard for centuries. In recent years, however, more and more people have been pronouncing often with the t-sound, just as it is spelled.
