Hi there,\n\nThe right pronunciation of 'Often' is without the 't' in it. But, due to various social and cultural influences, people in some parts of the world tend to pronunce the 't' also.\n\nrule wid style n luv@vinny

It probably was a product of laziness at first but now, pronouncing your Ts sounds...like...cultured, and almost condescending. Only the most educated people will pronounce their Ts. I know, it's weird, but it's become culturally acceptable for the average American not to pronounce them.

I have to type the word "the" carefully. If I'm typing fast, it comes out as "teh."

You spelled it right, it is the pronunciation that most get wrong, they say gover-ment most of the time, people tend to forget there is a "N" in there.

You the first letter of the word and put it at the end, and then you add an "ay" at the end of that. Unless of course it begins with a vowel, in which case you would say the word regularly but with an added "way" at the end. For example: My name would be "Aaronway". Make sure you don't swith up any of the letters if it begins with a vowel, cause that't not how you do it. :)

N and Ñ are two entirely different letters, with entirely different sounds. N sounds as in English, but Ñ sounds like NY in canyon, or NI in onion. Also, "new" (British pron.) sounds like "ñu" to us, Spanish speakers. It's like N and Y spoken together. So it would depend on what you want to say.\n\nADDED LATER:\n\nI'm afraid there is no such rule as the one you're asking for. Of course if you know how to pronounce the word, you'll know which letter to use, and reversely, if you know how to spell it, you'll know how to read it. But if you don't have a clue, and you want to predict from the original English word, which one you will have to use, I'm afraid there is nothing you can do to know which letter is required in each specific case. You know for us, N and Ñ are not just as A and Á (i.e.: a letter with or without accent). We take N and Ñ to be two independent letters, just as M and R, to say any example. So, knowing which one to use of these two has never been an issue. They are two different letters, and each has a place. And you don't wonder, in English, why is it that "month" is spelt with an M rather than with an R. They are two independent letters.

♡Well, I'm sitting with a group of 8 Japanese (as I pretty much do once a week) and I asked them your Q just now. This is what they said ～　It's a little difficult for us to pronounce "R" as well as "L", "V", "TH" and a few other letters or combinations of letters because they are those letters/sounds that aren't used in our everyday Japanese. SOME of us aren't accustomed to forming the letter(s) with our mouths or making the correct sound. We're just not used to it so when SOME of us speak English, which is foreign to us, we have some difficulty. It's not on purpose! It would be the same for some "foreigners" trying to speak Japanese and using "tsu", "gyo", "ryu" and such, they just don't get it. Think about it. We stress SOME because many Japanese people don't have the problem and pronounce "R" and all sounds perfectly. ～～So Coffee, there you have it, straight from the mouths of Japanese, who all speak English exceptionally well I might add!♡

I like it spelled with a "k", Krystal.  You don't want it to be too different cause then people won't know how to pronounce it.
