  • Hello!
    This video is about three different ways of pronouncing regular verbs with ‘-ed’ in the Past Simple Tense.
    In the Past Simple, regular verbs ending in 'ed' can be pronounced in three different ways: / ɪd /, / d / and / t /.
    Please note: the INFINITIVE is a basic form of a verb, for example: be, have, wash, or like.

    00:00 Introduction
    00:43 When do we pronounced /id/?
    Regular verbs that end in the sound / t / or / d /, in the past simple the 'ed' ending is pronounced / ɪd /.
    For example:
    • start - started
    • want - wanted
    • need - needed
    • decide - decided
    01:03 When do we pronounced /t/ or /d/?
    The pronunciation of the 'ed' ending for other regular verbs in the past simple depends on whether the last sound of the infinitive of the verb is VOICED or NOT.
    01:14 What are VOICED and UNVOICED sounds?
    01:30 Voiced sounds - they make your vocal cords vibrate /d/
    Regular verbs that end in voiced sounds will have / d / as the pronunciation of the 'ed' ending in the past simple.
    For example:
    • smile - smiled
    • turn - turned
    • love - loved
    01:39 Unvoiced sounds - no vibration /t/
    However, regular verbs that end in unvoiced sounds will have / t / as the pronunciation of the 'ed' ending in the past simple.
    For example:
    • jump - jumped
    • kiss - kissed
    • wash - washed
    • look - looked
    • watch - watched
    02:04 Recap of all the pronunciations /t/, /d/ and /id/
    There are three different ways to pronounce the letters '-ed' for regular verbs in the past simple and the way to choose how to pronounce them depends on the final sound of the infinitive.
    • Infinitives that end in the sound /d/ or /t/ are pronounced /id/
    • Infinitives that end in the voiced (vibrating) sound are pronounced /d/
    • Infinitives that end in the unvoiced (NOT vibrating) sound are pronounced /t/
    02:58 Reminder that -ed will never pronounced as "EDD"
