n
The KN makes an N sound, so the K is silent. The CK pair always has a K sound, so either the C or the K is a superfluous consonant.
The letters silent in tongue are g, u and e. The letter g velarizes the n sound.
In the word "hang", it may look like the G is silent, but it's not really silent. If you remove the G, then the N sound would change. NG is an ending consonant digraph, and the G sound is just swallowed by the N, which makes the N stressing accent sounding like G. To put it another way, the terminal 'ng' is actually a separate sound from either n or g. The NG digraph is usually found in progressive present verb endings. where we usually add the "ing" suffix to progressive present verbs.
The silent letter is the 'n' on the end. When spoken, hymn sounds like hym (him) as the 'n' is silent.

Their are no "silent letters" as the 4 letters "eigh" make a single long A sound (as in weigh, eight). It is possible, however, to consider the GH consonant pair as silent because the "ei" vowel pair alone can sometimes have an A sound (lei, rein). But other "ei" words have other sounds (neither).
