How to pronounce English well?
Don't worry if you don't have a native-English accent. It's important to be able to speak clearly, so that people can understand you. However, it's almost impossible to sound exactly like a native English speaker if you are learning English as an adult in a non-English speaking country.

  2. I learned the D and T sounds, is very impotant in American English because is a common mistakes.
    If the regular verb ends in a vowel sound the ED is pronunced with the sound D and if the regular verb ends in an unvoiced consoant sound so ED ending is pronounced with the sound T.

  3. In this lesson I learned that, in past tense, if the verb ends in vowel sounds (Doesn't depends on the spelling) it's pronounced with a final /D/.
    Also, if it ends in unvoiced consonant sounds, it has a final /T/.
    Finally, when the verb ends in T or D, has a final /ID/ pronunciation.

    From the video I learned to identify differents sounds of regular verbs like vowels, consonants and unconsonants sounds, and how to pronounce them in past. Now, for me is easier to detect the way that I can pronunce some verbs in past like -ED,-T and -D sounds.

  8. In this lesson, i learned that every verbs in past tense don't pronounced same. There are many differences acording to end of verb. For example: verbs that ends with "t" or "d", in past are pronounced ending whit "id". Verbs that ends whit a "vibration" on pronunciation, in past end whit a "d" sound. And verbs that ends with "Dry sounds", in past end whit a "t" sound.

    With this activity learned about the pronunciation of the past of regular verbs, what we know it is that these verbs ending ' -ed ' can be pronounced in three different ways . The first is as / id / , such as, ' needed ' or ' wanted ' . The second is a sound / t /, as ' watched ' . The third is a sound / d / as ' called ' .
