Mini English Lessons Today's Mini English Lesson is about how to pronounce -ed endings.
2
These are common on regular past simple verbs, regular past participles, and also lots of adjectives.
3
When you see an -ed ending, there are three different possible pronunciations, and we can divide these into two main categories.
4
Here are some verbs from the first category.
5
Want becomes wanted.
6
Need becomes needed.
7
In this category, we add a syllable when we pronounce it.
8
So to 'want', a one syllable word, we add /ɪd/, making a two syllable word.
9
Wanted. The same for need, one syllable, we add /ɪd/, needed.
10
Here are some other verbs in this category: wait, waited, recommend, recommended. Can you see the pattern?
11
All of these verbs end with 'd' or 't'.
12
If the final letter of the verb is d or t, you can add a syllable in the past simple.
13
You add /ɪd/.
14
That's the first category. Let's look at the second category.
15
Here are some example verbs: play - played, live - lived.
16
With these verbs, we do not add another syllable.
17
If you say /pleɪed/, it's wrong.
18
Remember, the only verbs that add an extra syllable end in 't' or 'd'.
19
All other verbs, they keep the same number of syllables.
20
Close is one syllable, and the past is closed, still one syllable.
21
Focus is two syllables and the past is focussed. Still two syllables.
22
But there is a little difference in this category.
23
We don't add an extra syllable, but we do add an extra sound to make the past simple.
24
And for this, you have two options.
25
The sound could be /d/ or /t/.
26
Let's compare those two verbs again, close and focus.
27
The verb focus ends with a /s/ sound, like a snake.
28
When you say /s/, if you put your hand here, you can't feel it.
29
/s/ This means it is unvoiced.
30
For the verb close, it ends with a /z/.
31
When you say /z/, if you put your hand here, you can feel it.
32
/z/ And that means it is voiced.
33
So we have /s/ unvoiced, /z/ voiced.
34
If the sound is unvoiced, like /s/ then we add a /t/ sound to make the past.
35
Focus, focussed.
36
If the sound is voiced, /z/, we add a /d/ sound to make the past.
37
Close, closed.
38
The only important thing is not to add an extra syllable unless the verb ends in t or d.
39
In all other cases, keep the same number of syllables and just add the sound /t/ or /d/.

什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
