Answer 2

The silent letter in the guard is 'u' .In Saturday 'u'  is the silent letter. For example, the silent letter k. The 'k' in the English language is traditionally a tough sounding vowel 'cash' or 'kah',  particularly when it comes at the end of a word like back.

However, when the letter 'k' precedes 'n' at the start of a word, it becomes silent; such as 'know'. Silent letters can be distinguished between homophonically like e.g. in/inn; be/bee; lent/leaned. This is a help to readers for convenience.
