1. How to Pronounce Verbs Ending -ed

Hopefully, you already know that most past verbs end in -ed. You might also know that past verbs ending in -ed are not all pronounced the same way. For example:
  • planned
  • asked
  • decided
In these three verbs, the -ed ending is pronounced in a different way each time. Can you hear the difference? Do you know why the three verbs are different?
