I wasn't sure what that is, so I did a quick search:
Silent C: The letter C is silent when it is in the letter combination of SC. Examples: scissors, ascent, fascinate, muscle. The letter C is also silent before the letters K and Q. Examples: block, puck, lock, acknowledge, aqua, acquit, acquiesce.
It doesn't help much to point out that those are all loan words, since 90% of English is loan words.

You know what? I should have checked it myself, but I’m the kind who likes to learn incidentally from other people haha. Thanks for checking it out for me! Much appreciated
