Three rules for ED endings
Many verbs that are in the past tense end in ED. (Example: Today I walk, yesterday I walked)
Rule 1
If a word ends in an unvoiced consonant, when adding ED, just add an Unvoiced T
Example:
Today I jump, yesterday I jumped. (pronounced jump T)
Today I walk, yesterday I walked. (pronounced walk T)
Rule 2
If a word ends in a voiced consonant, add a Voiced D
Example:
Today I rub, yesterday I rubbed. (pronounced rub-D)
I cleaned the kitchen.
I poured the milk.
I scrubbed the floor.
I tagged the clothing.
I spilled some juice.
I trimmed the tree.
I moved to California. The clock buzzed all night.
Rule 3
If a word ends in a T or a D sound, we add a Voiced ED
Example:
Today, I lift the ball. Yesterday, I lifted the ball.
I heated up my dinner.
He voted this morning.
He handed me his report.
I traded in my old car.
She added some information.
All voiced D endings are underlined to help you remember to add voicing.
Bob raked the leaves and then started to wash his car. He then loaded up the dishwasher and finished washing his dishes.
Susan spilled her drink on the spotted rug. She cleaned it up with a napkin, which wasted a lot of time.
