The question is, how do we pronounce
the -ed?
The answer is, in 3 ways:
/ɪd/
/t/
/d/
 Test yourself

asked, called, discovered, enjoyed, invited, jumped, lived, looked, missed,

reached, needed, rented, saved, travelled, worked, studied, avoided, counted,
promised
 /d/ /t/ /id/

Called Asked
Discovered Jumped Invited
Enjoyed Looked Needed
Lived Missed Rented
Saved Reached Avoided
Travelled Worked Counted
Studied Promised
1. The /id/ sound
• If the last letter of the word is spelled with D or T, the ED is pronounced as a
separate syllable with an /id/ sound (it rhymes with kid and lid).
• wanted (sounds like "want-id")
• waited
• needed
• folded
2. The /t/ sound

• If the last consonant of the word is voiceless, then the ED is pronounced as

a T. Be careful not to create an extra syllable or "id" sound.
• talked (sounds like "talkt")
• kissed (the S sound comes from the front of mouth so it would sound like
"kisst")
• parked
• helped
3. The /d/ sound
• If the last letter of the words ends in a voiced consonant (or sound), then
the ED is pronounced like a D (without creating another syllable)
• played (sounds like "playd")
• closed (the S sounds like a vibrating Z so the word would sound like "clozd")
• opened
• lived

 REAGING TIME
Make Your Bed and Change the World!

Do you want to change your life and change the world to make it a better
place? William McRaven is an admiral in the United States navy and he has
some good ideas about how to do this. He says don’t be afraid to try new
things that are difficult . Also, he says never give up, never quit when
something is difficult. Many people agree that these are very good ideas.
But, Admiral McRaven also has another idea. His idea is very different. He
says that you must make your bed every morning to change the world. He
gives two reasons for this. First, after you make your bed you will want to
do more work, and then more work … and then more work. This is
important because you must do lots of work when you want to change the
world. Second, sometimes work or school is not easy and you will feel bad
– but when you come home and see a beautiful bed, you will feel happy.
Then, when you are happy, you will not be afraid to try difficult things
tomorrow. Tomorrow, you will go back to work or school and feel great.
Make your bed every day, says Admiral McRaven, and you can change your
life and change the world!
