                                  How do we say “salmon”?

                             This word is often mispronounced.




                          We do not pronounce the “l” in salmon.

                              It should sound like “SAAH-min.”

                  Note: “L” is also silent in “palm,” “psalm,” “calm,” and “balm.”



                                     “I love to eat salmon!”
