    So that you would be, "In the Know" instead of, "In the Now".  Completely different is completely different ... if you get what I mean.

    knot,is a speed,that is use at sea,or if one was flying,i think,??

    One common spelling error is omitting the K at the beginning of words where it is silent (example: nick-nack instead of knick-knack). The origins of silent K are difficult to pin down. What we do know is that the k wasn’t always silent, especially in words of Germanic origin. Just as it is in German, the k was actually pronounced and many of the words which now have silent k originally began with that distinctive clicking sound. http://www.dailywritingtips.com/the-silent-k/

    I love silent letters here are more examples ..http://literacy.kent.edu/Midwest/Materials/ndakota/soup/silent_letters.pdf

    Know makes it like I know you
    Now is like let's do this right now it makes the word have different meanings .. By one letter .. :)
