According to Webster’s dictionary, “walk” is pronounced
Wo’k or, just “wok”
Bottom line? It’s silent.

I barely pronounce it, but it isn’t silent. You can hear it, but it isn’t emphasized. I definitely don’t say wok or wallk, the l is the least heard (but still audible) part of that word.

Definitely silent.
Dictionary pronunciation is /wÉk/ or [wawk]

no L. But not like wok. Like w-aw-k. not w-o-k. I’m getting people in my office to say it, and I don’t hear the L, nor do I use it. Same thing as in talk.

I barely pronounce it, but if I didn’t pronounce it at all then it would be “wak” I pronounce it “wourk”, but not so harsh sounding
