A letter in the German-based alphabet of Central Franconian. A letter in the Dutch-based alphabet of Central Franconian. Use of silent H
In the German-based spelling, silenth may be written to indicate a preceding long vowel. Some writers make liberal use of this, but the predominant tendency is to use doubled vowel letters instead and allowh only in the following cases:where it serves to indicate a hiatus:blohe [ˈblɔːə] ; where the German cognate hash as well:fähle (Germanfehlen ); where the German cognate hasch org :mäht (Germanmacht ). Silenth is not used in the Dutch-based spelling. Borrowed fromJapanese H ( etchi ) , initialism of変態 ( hentai ,“ sexual perversion ” ) . Sometimes reinterpreted by Chinese speakers as initialism ofMandarin 黃 / 黄 (huáng ) orCantonese 鹹 / 咸 (haam4 ).

The eighth letter of the German alphabet. Spelling rules for silenth
For the use of silenth in German orthography one may note three general rules:
It occurs only after long monophthongs and the diphthongei . It occurs after simplei only in the pronominal stemsihm ,ihn- ,ihr- (and inSchlemihl ). It is mostly restricted to native Germanic words; instances in loanwords are exceptional. Expanding on this, one can distinguish three types of silenth :
Etymologicalh is written in words whereMiddle High German had a consonant that has become silent; this was usuallyh , sometimesg, j orw . Etymologicalh is missing only in a few words (e.g.rau ,Ton ,Träne ). Hiatus-breakingh is written when an inflectable word stem ends in a long monophthong. This, too, is missing only in a few native words (e.g.säen , certain nouns likeKnie ,See ,Schnee ). Lengtheningh (in the strict sense) may be written between longa, ä, e, o, ö, u, ü and followingl, m, n, r . Its use is very irregular and it is missing in a great deal of words. At times this is done to distinguish homophones (e.g.malen vs.mahlen ), but in general there is no clear system. One can note that lengtheningh proper does not occur in stems starting withsch-, sp-, t- . It is overall rare in words starting with more than one consonant, but there are several counterexamples (e.g.Drohne ,prahlen ,Stuhl ).
