Here We Go!
- The ed ending on regular past simple verbs ending in /t/ or /d/ is pronounced with an extra syllable (/id/). For example: started, waited, ended.
- For all other past simple verbs there’s no extra syllable. After unvoiced sounds: /k/, /p/, /f/, and /s/, ed is pronounced /t/. For example, stopped, walked, watched.
- After voiced sounds, ed is pronounced /d/. For example, arrived, changed, used.
Voiced and Voiceless Consonants
What is a Voiced Consonant?
A simple explanation of voiced consonants is that they use the voice. This is easy to test by putting your finger on your throat. If you feel a vibration the consonant is voiced. Here is a list of some voiced consonants. Pronounce each consonant sound (not the letter) and feel the vibration of your vocal chords.
b
d
th (as in then)
v
l
r
z
j (as in Jane)
What is Voiceless Consonant?
Voiceless consonants do not use the voice. They are percussive and use hard sounds. Once again, you can test if a consonant is voiceless by putting your finger on your throat. You will feel no vibration in your throat, just a short explosion of air as you pronounce. Pronounce each of these consonant sounds and feel NO vibration in your throat.
p
t
k
s
sh
ch
th (as in thing)

ed = /t/ ed = /d/ ed = /id/

Any Questions?
Let’s Get Started!
On a piece of paper, make three (3) columns for ed pronunciation labeled /t/, /d/, and /id/ like this
ed = /t/ ed = /d/ ed = /id/
asked based believed called arrested decided
Then, using the word list below, add each word to the appropriate list depending on the pronounced sound of the ed ending just like the example above.
Finally, I will have each one of you pronounce a few words from the list, and then ask you to tell me if the consonant before the ed is voiced or voiceless.
