Why is there a 'p',in the word,...?

Question

'psychic'?

Answer 1

It's an etymology crisis. "Psych" being a Latin root. So you can't isolate "p" as a single entity because it's part of an actual root.

Answer 2

Cici almost had it right.

The word psychic comes from the Greek psychikos meaning "of the soul or mental". Because this is the root word you must leave the spelling with a "p".

Answer 3

p is the best brand of this world , my pat you are

Answer 4

the P is silent, you do not pronounce it

Answer 5

Because watching someone believe in a "psychic" makes me laugh so hard I have to "P".

Or cry.
