Today we are going to work on pronunciation In particular we are going to focus on words

that end in ed.

http://skype-englishschool.com

Page 3: Learning English Pronuncing Ed Sound

There are 3 different sounds for words that end in ed

Rule 1: If a present tense verb ends with the sound of a voiced consonant or a vowel sound, the pronunciation in past tense is /d/

Rule 2: If the present tense verb ends with the sound of a voiceless consonant sound (f, k, s, x, sh, ch, or p), the pronunciation in past tense is /t/

Rule 3: If the present tense verb ends with the sound of /t/ or /d/ consonant sound, the pronunciation in past tense is always /id/

Note: it’s the ending sound, not spelling that determines pronunciation.
