The letter H is silent in Italian and is rarely found on its own. Other than in words borrowed from other languages, H is only found in some conjugations of avere (to have).
Note that H is only ever added to C and G in front of soft vowels (E, I), in order to make their pronunciation hard. In front of hard vowels (A, O, U), the letters C and G are already hard sounds.
