Working on the pronunciation

It is very important for the learning process that the students learn the correct pronunciation of the words since day one, in order to avoid fossilising mistakes.

Most students fail to learn the correct pronunciation of some words and this may cause communication problems in the future.

Adjectives and Adverbs Whose Final –ED Is Pronounced /-Id/ 

There are a few adjectives ending in -ED, derived from verbs or not, whose -ED is also pronounced /-Id/. Following is a list of such adjectives.



Similarly, when we add -LY to some adjectives ending in -ED, whether they are derived from verbs or not, the ending -EDLY is pronounced /-IdlI/. Following is a list of such adverbs, their pronunciation and meaning.
