Final Pronunciation Of Regular Verbs -ed - Quiz


Questions and Answers
  • 1. 

    Select regular verbs with /Id/ sound. (More than one option)

    • A.

      Called

    • B.

      Started

    • C.

      Washed

    • D.

      Needed

    Correct Answer(s)
    B. Started
    D. Needed
    Explanation
    The regular verbs "Started" and "Needed" have the /Id/ sound at the end. In English, regular verbs in the past tense often end with the sound /Id/, which is pronounced as "d" or "t" depending on the preceding sound. In the case of "Started," the /Id/ sound is pronounced as "t" because the preceding sound is unvoiced. Similarly, in "Needed," the /Id/ sound is pronounced as "d" because the preceding sound is voiced.

    • C.

      /t/

    Correct Answer
    B. /Id/
    Explanation

In this word, the final consonant sound is a "t" sound, but it is pronounced as a /d/ sound due to the preceding sound being a voiced consonant. This is a common rule in English pronunciation where a final "t" sound is pronounced as a /d/ sound when it comes after a voiced sound.

    Correct Answer
    B. /d/
    Explanation
    The final pronunciation of the word "Cried" is /d/. This is because the "ed" ending in the word is pronounced as /d/ when the base word ends in a voiced sound, as in the case of "cry". The voiced sound in "cry" is the /r/ sound, so the final pronunciation of "Cried" is /d/.

    Correct Answer
    B. /d/
    Explanation
    The correct final pronunciation of the word "played" is /d/. In this word, the "-ed" ending is pronounced as a voiced "d" sound because the final sound in the base form of the verb "play" is a voiced consonant sound.

    • C.

      /t/

    Correct Answer
    A. /Id/
    Explanation
    The final pronunciation of the word "Wanted" is /Id/. This is because the word ends with the letter "d" which is a voiced consonant, and when a voiced consonant is followed by the sound /t/ or /d/, it is pronounced as /Id/. Therefore, the correct pronunciation of "Wanted" is /ˈwɑntɪd/.

      /t/

    Correct Answer
    A. /Id/
    Explanation
    The final pronunciation of the word "Created" is /Id/. In this pronunciation, the final "ed" is pronounced as a separate syllable, with a slight "d" sound. This is known as the "voiced dental fricative" pronunciation, and it is commonly used in American English.

    Correct Answer
    C. /t/

    The final pronunciation of the word "Helped" is /t/. This is because the letter "ed" at the end of the word is pronounced as /t/ when the base form of the verb ends in an unvoiced sound, such as in the word "help". Therefore, the final sound in "Helped" is /t/.

    Correct Answer
    A. /Id/
    Explanation
    The final pronunciation of the word "Visited" is /Id/. This is because the word ends with the letter "d", which is a voiced consonant. When a voiced consonant is followed by the sound /d/ or /t/, it is pronounced as /Id/. In this case, the final "d" in "Visited" is followed by the sound /d/, so it is pronounced as /Id/.

    Mark the final sound of the word "Asked".

    • A.

      /Id/

    • B.

      /d/

    • C.

      /t/

    Correct Answer
    C. /t/
    Explanation
    The final sound of the word "Asked" is /t/. This is because the letter "d" in the word is pronounced as /t/ when it comes after the sound /s/ in words like "asked," "passed," and "missed." This is a rule in English pronunciation called "final devoicing," where voiced sounds like /d/ become voiceless sounds like /t/ at the end of words.
