Silent b (climb, thumb)
Climb
Say: KLIME. To go up using hands and feet.
The children love to climb the old banyan tree.
Thumb
Say: THUM. The short, thick finger on your hand.

Comb
Say: KOHM. A tool for tidying hair.

Remember: After m at the end of a word, b is silent: climb, thumb, comb, lamb, crumb. It stays silent in climber and climbing too.
