The t in often is not pronounced and does not belong there. It was added to the word in the Middle English period, on the analogy of oft. +++ I beg to differ. Although it is not stressed, I hear it pronounced far more than ignored completely! It may be a matter of dialect. OFT = OFTEN anyway. The EN is the addition.
