Hello Rebecca,
I’m really appreciate your video lessons.
When I was founding out an English information, I found your webpage. It’s quite good. I’m sure that It’s going to improve my english skills.
I’d like to know “L”, “R” pronunciation.
It’s really difficult for me who is KOREAN.
Thanks in advance.
Dear Charlie,
This is Bill Ralens here from http://www.naruhodo-eigo.com. In your post, you asked about the pronunciation for L and R. I first suggest getting a mirror so you can watch yourself. Feedback is everything you know. To pronounce R, open your mouth, place your hands in front of your face and breathe out like you are wanting to waRm up your hands. R is waRm. To pronounce L, place the tip of your tongue on the back of your top two center teeth. Suck air in and you’ll notice that the air feels coLd on your tongue. L is coLd. That is how you pronounce L and R.
Thanks for helping out, Bill.
Hi,Rebecca,Could you tell me how about the exam levels of English in the world?And please give me some advice how to learn more international or North English in China.Thanks for your lively courses.
Actually Bill to pronounce L you put the end of your tongue on your lower teeth keeping rest of your tongue flat and exhale across the top of your mouth never moving your tongue and pronounce from your throat
Hi. I heard about this site from my foreign friend but I can’t view your videos here in China. Do you have any alternatives? Hope you can help me out with this. I want to be a fan of your videos too, same as my friend. Thanks!
Hi xiaojana. You will have to use a “proxy” that will allow you to view YouTube videos in China. Right now there is no other option. We are hoping in the future to put our lessons on Youku or a similar Chinese site.
you should sign in a account of google mail(gmail),then use gmail proxy,you should set parameters of IE or firefox,then activate command,then view this frequently.it’s very useful and free my question is similar to you but solved by myself.
you are a very good teacher thank you

Hello Rebecca,
Thanks a lot for your lessons. I would appreciate if you can send me a bigger list of regular verbs and their pronunciation. I understood your explanation about them, but I do not know how can I know the right way of pronunciation. Is there any rule to follow?
Thanks in advance,
Sandra
There are three rules to pronounce past tense verbs.
1. The past tense ( ed) is pronounced as (t) when the last sound in the present tense is voiceless :
Ex: Look — Looked (t)
Miss — Missed
Stop — Stopped
2. The past tense (ed) is pronounced as (d) when the last sound in the present tense verb is a Vowel or a voiced consonant
Ex : Love — Loved (d)
Stay — Stayed
Tune — Tuned
3. The past tense (ed) is pronounced as (id) when the last sound in the present tense verb is t or d
Ex : End — Ended (id)
Brand– Branded
paste — pasted
I hope this will help you.
Thankx for the detail information. That is I want to know.
Great advice, thank you!
Great. Thanks ;)
Do “appeciated” get /id/ sound? the result of the quiz give it like mistake. thanks for your help.
4. appreciated
a.t
b.d
c.id
in this situation, why is the correct answer is letter b? can you help me?
thank you
Thanks to all of you for your feedback and please let me know if there are other topics you would like to have me explain.
English pronunciation has a lot of variations, but keep listening carefully and don’t give up.
Sandra and Hector – I will email you some information about what you’ve asked about.
Hi Rebecca! thank you for this video lesson, the pronunciation of the past tense regular verb is a big problem for me
Hi Rebecca, like Sandra and Hector, could you send a list of verbs with ending ed and d and their pronunciation ?
Thanks a lot.
Hi Rebecca, like Sandra and Hector, could you send me a list of verbs and their pronunciation ?
Thanks so much!
Dear Rebecca:
Since june i’m studying english, and for me is very hard to understand the correct pronuntiation of regular verbs in past tense, so i need a lot of help from you; first as well as Sandra and Hector i need a list of regular verbs with their corrects pronuntations also i want a list about the usual irregular verbs.
I hope to get your response soon, thanks a lot.
This is my first view at your website it’s amazing!!!!
Regards, george ;)
thanks 4 posting your videos. Could you cast some light as 2 how 2 pronounce thew u vowel. For instance pool and pull; fool and full. thanks again
Hi Carlos
Thanks for your comments.
In the word pull or full the u is short as in the words up, cup or nut. It’s a kind of “uh” sound.
In pool and fool the u sound is longer, like “oo” and you need to bring your lips together into a kind of o shape.
Hope this helps.
Hi George
Glad you found the lesson helpful. There are many grammar books which provide a list of the irregular English verbs. For example, you can look at the back of English Grammar In Use by Raymond Murphy
.
It’s kind of difficult to find a list of the regular verbs and how they sound because there are so many of them. There are some guidelines you can follow by looking into an English pronunciation book. You can also try to listen carefully to good native speaker pronunciation and you can learn well that way.
Good luck to you!
Hi Rebecca!
How r you?
You’re good at explaning I was a little confuse wit this topic of pronunciation, but I saw u and Im not anymore thank you :)
Thanks, Israel. Glad I could help. Good luck with your English!
Rebecca
Hi Rebecca
you are very good teacher .
I’m going to appeare in IELTS exam that’s why I need your help. Basically I belong to urdu medium. Would you please guide me how can I get 7 band.
Hi Rabia
The IELTS is quite a challenging exam. Please allow enough time to prepare for it. The speakers have English and Australian accents on the listening sections of the exam and you must get used to this.
You can start by checking this website:
http://www.goodluckielts.com
It will give you a lot of information, tips and strategies to get a higher score on the exam.
You also need to get hold of a good IELTS exam preparation guide book, such as Cambridge or any of those you see recommened on the website above.
Work through the tests, find out your weaker areas, and then do lots of additional practice to strengthen yourself in those areas.
It would certainly be helpful to attend a good IELTS preparation class if you can. You need to get feedback from a teacher on your IELTS writing.
Make sure you know whether you need to take the General or Academic IELTS.
All the best to you, Rabia.
Hi,
Needless to say u r a very good teacher. Your gesture,body language, voice quality and tone are perfact and flawless. Keep learning good english in a very simple and interested way.
Surya
Thanks for your kind words, Surya. I wish you all the best.
Hello Rebecca! You are a great teacher . I ´ve learned a lot from your class . Thank you very much , but I was wondering if you could help me to improve my listening skills , I am going to take TOEFL exam again and I want to reach a higher score . Please can you email me some information?
Thanks a lot!
Aside from doing extra practice from various TOEFL guidebooks, you might want to look for a really good listening book and CD called Learn to Listen, Listen to Learn. It has many helpful exercises to build up your listening skills.
Remember also that taking notes effectively will make a big difference to your listening score, as well as your integrated writing response.
Thanks For you
Hi, your lessons are great! I’m using them here in Slovakia to teach adults. Some of your videos the focus is not constant. Some camera advice…the camera should have an infinity focus setting. Try setting it to that setting, it should stay focused on the board and not go out of focus when you step forward. It should also sufficiently keep you in focus when you step forward. Keep up the great work! TJ
Hi. I’m happy you are finding the lessons useful. It’s wonderful to hear all the different countries that the lessons are being watched in. Thanks for the technical suggestions, too. The problems you’re talking about shouldn’t appear in our newer English lessons, but please let us know if you do have other suggestions. Thanks for watching!
I’ve really learned this for the very first time.
thanks a ton
hi…i have a query..if ‘kissed’ or ‘worked’ ends with ‘t’ sound then how does ‘killed’ pronunciation ends with? how to chose words for correct pronunciation? …
‘Killed’ ends with a d sound. Check with a pronunciation book for a more detailed explanation.
Thank you teacher! I did the quiz and I got 50 :( But thank you for the information you give too! I am going to practice more then the usual!
Yes, keep at it and you will surely improve. By the way, you should actually say,
I am going to practice more than usual.
:)

Hi Yanina
There are many good English pronunciation kits available which can help you. Look for them online under ‘Improving English Pronunciation’
Otherwise, you could join a course or find a good private teacher to make quicker progress in English.
All the best to you.
Dear Ms rebecca ,

do you mind to give me or us your link such as email or your account on facebook or tiwtter to talk with you

Thanks for the video class. It really helps me a lot, you’re an excellent teacher. I hope some day I’ll speak English as well as you do.
Thank you.
I’m sure you will. Believing in ourselves is what makes everything possible. My best wishes to you.
hi teacher… thank for ur lesson.. for the result of the quiz.. i only correct 3 questions…. T.T sad to see this… haha.. however, may i know when i need to pronoun t, d , id for a verb ?
is it only 1 way to know how to pronoun that is hear other people talk ? sorry again for my poor english
There are some rules, but I believe the easier way would be for you to learn naturally through listening, at this stage.
You don’t need to apologize for your English. How wonderful that you have made so much progress. That’s all any of us can do – keep going, try our best. Each day you will improve.
My best wishes to you.
HELLO REBECCA, I NEED A BIG FAVOR PLEASE, IF YOU COULD SEND ME A BIGGER LIST OF REGULAR VERBS WITH THE PRONUNCIACION. I`M CONFUSED.

Thank you for all lessons. Can you explain this sentence to me? I could see the waves lapped against the rocks. Someone told me that I should use lapping instead of lapped. Can you tell me why
Thanks
hello, Rebeca
that is defenitely a very important subject to teach our students. But, you forgot to teach us when we are supposed to sound like “t” or d” , which happens to most of the verbs….then you say, “we have 3 options” it might sound like i can pronounce the verbs whatever way I want, so here are the rules, people:
t sound- verbds ending in – f- k-p-ch-cs-ss
ed sound- verbs ending in t or d
d sound- for the rest of the verbs…
thank you]
Luis

hello!! thank you very much. i am an amateur teacher, this my first year teaching. i have to look for tips and information that make my class understand the topic easily and this was a perfect example for me.
Hi Robecca, May you recommend for me a website that telling more about how to get correctly pronunciation for regular verbs in past tense,like when we say -ed is -t,-d or -id. Or you may talk about that more detail
nice.nice.nice….thank u miss you are a very good teacher. and we wait from you and from your partenersother lessons with the same quality.
Very nice, Rebecca. I never knew that in some past regular verbs there is a ‘t’ sound.
I always pronounced (‘d’ sound?) ‘d’ and ‘id’ but never ‘t’ sound.
Well, I really don’t see such a big difference when pronouncing “worked” with ‘d’ and ‘t’.
It somehow always overcome the ‘t’ sound.
I really do not know what I wanted (‘id’?) to say above, but I hope you understood me.
One more thing. You said there are some rules in the last message. Can you tell us what are those rules?
Thank you! Keep up the good work. (This is an idiom, right?)
thank you very much for the video. it’s really a big big BIG help to me as an english instructor.

HI,
I have the same question with FreeManStars’s comment,It’s abount the pronuciaton of the “appreciated”.
I need the answer,too.
thanks.
O have the same real name as u
Rebecca thanks 4 your effort.
Teacher,
I am a Brazilian. Times ago I found a book which taught me that if the verb ends in -TED or -DED, the suffix ED sounds as /ID/. Examples: ADDED, WANTED.
If the last sound of the verb ends in your lips, ED sounds as /T/ as in WASHED /T/, STOPPED /T/.
And if the last sound of the verb is in throat, the suffix ED sound as /D/ such as ARRIVED /D/, TATTOOED /D/.
Do you agree with this, teacher?
i love it to much raally tomorrow i have a diagnostic exam and thid help me so much thanks
rebecca thanks for givin me a lot a i’m conchita fom Argentina i lov yu yu ar de best

great lesson. I didn´t know the difference in pronountiation. Greetings from Chile Rebecca.
hi rebecca!
Appreciated is pronounced as d or id. I took a quiz, my answer was id but it says i was wrong. which is really correct pronunciation? thanks.
i need to study more
I have a doubt!
Would you consider these differences important to teach them in a EFL classroom for just kids?
When would you teach it?
Thanks anyway :)
Hey Rebecca, i’m a foreigner from israel.
i think the site is amazingly good to learn english and i hope to improve really soon.
although your video was pretty clear i wanted to ask: when do i know i need to pronounce it ‘t’/’ed’/’id’ ?
you showed some example but you didn’t give guideline.
looking forward for your answer.
BTW, if i wanna learn properly, is there an order for watching videos ?
oh last question, how can i improve my voice infliction and pronunciation while talking ? i can easily express myself over writing but i would say a sentence in 30 second.
again, Thank you Rebecca.
hi thank you very nice teacher for me.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR GIVING US SO USEFUL ENGLISH LESSONS….APPRECIATED FINISHES __ID OR D??THANKS IN ADVANCE:::CARLOS SIMÕES
Tnks about it !
it would be helpful to me if you teach me how to pronounce var,were,where,wear,wore
Thanks!!!
Hi Rebecca,
Thanks for the lesson. I’ve learned a lot, but I got a question from the quiz. Isn’t “appreciated” pronounced “id”? Thanks a lot!!
I think you right. We must use in this word.
I think you right. We must use id in this word.
And again :).
I think you are right. We must use id in this word.
What is the difference between
1 should have and should have been
2 would have and would have been
3 could have could have been
Hi patilrr ….
should have been –> Which is happened in past …

Thank you, Rebecca.
I like these videos.
Could you tell how to pronounce “send to” [send tə] or [sent tə]? And other examples?
I have same doubt ….
Don’t worry about forgetting gmramar. The mere fact that you are speaking English means that gmramar is constantly being applied and memory is constantly being stimulated. It is fantastic that you are taking the time to teach your students Accent Reduction. With today’s global workforce bringing together all the diverse speakers of English as a second language, it is vital that one’s accent be understood. An understandable accent will make the difference in their job success. Cudos to you!www.askalia.squarespace.comAlia

Thank you Rebecca, this lesson is very good.

thanks for your lesson
hello, thanks for your lessons, I have a question, I’ve done the quiz, and I thaught for long that “appreciated” is pronounced with ‘id’ rather than’d’, so how could we differenciate between “negotiated” or “granted”?
how to speaking English.
thanks
hello, thanks for your lessons, I have a question, I’ve done the quiz, and I thaught for long that “appreciated” is pronounced with ‘id’ rather than’d’, so how could we differenciate between “negotiated” or “granted”?

hi. i really engoy ur program. thanks so much, but i can’t acces the video ,so what will i do to get u on video, please help…thanks and keep on teaching.
hi. Ribecca is u i sent the isue of video for.
Hello Rebecca
I want to thank you, this lesson is very useful for me.
I have a remark concerning the quiz:
according to the rule ‘appreciated’ must pronounce like ‘id’, but in the correction I found the correct answer is ‘t’.
Thank you a lot Im learning a lot from you :)
negotiate d is added to form negotiated . so d sound heard .
appreciate add d , too. d sound heard .
I feel confused , why say id sound in the verb –negotiated ?
I thought I had trapped myself . verbs which end by de or te + d , but still pronounce id.
I wonder if the answer was wrong — appreciated pronounced d rather than id ?
hi
tnx teacher for teaching me
a bunch of flower for u.
love, miss hana
“appreciated” – please tell me, how it can be pronounced with only sound “d” at end of the word?…
Thanks
absolutely agree with you) I think it just was an unfortunate misprint
Good lesson
Hi james … i’m from india, ‘m trying to speak like native english speaker but could not able to speak like a native speaker , i cn’t control my mother tongue slang in my english speech ?? i asked you b’cz you are from US ?? i hope you can clarify me ?? Could you ?? …
Hi Rebecca. In the question 4, appreciated final sound is id or d?, I answered id, would you mind explaining me why it is incorrect?, thanks for your help.
Good lesson!
Hi rebeca. I have the same question of jose delgado. Is it correct the pronunciation of appreciated with d instead of id?
Good Video, Keep Going!
Thanks Rebecca! I need more practice. But you are helping me out improving my English skills
Hi Rebecca! Than kou very much for this lesson. I got a 90 on the quiz, but I really have a doubt. The answer I had wrong was that one about the pronunciation of the verb “appreciated”. According to your explanation and to the grammar I have learned so far, the final “ed” in this case should be pronunciated as “id”, nevertheless, the system tells me that it should be “d”. I’d like you to explain that to me, please.
very helful. thanks so much miss
I was confused about the quiz. I got 6 correct out of 10 :( I should be careful about pronunciation. Never give up! Thank you, Rebecca :)
Wrong I look forward to meet you.
Right I look forward to meeting you.
Rebecca could u help me here to understand why i will use v+ing form after To (infinitive)???
Wrong
When I will arrive, I will call you.
Right
When I arrive, I will call you.
why ” when I Arrive” will be in a present indefinite form???
good job my lovely teacher
if someone wants to practice english language with me please contact with me through skype english.learning58

Hello Rebecca,
I’m really appreciate your video lessons.
Thanks in advance.
where’s the sound……..i can’t hear anything else here.
It was really hard for me..HaHa!
The first lesson is good, thanks Rebacca.
APpRECIATED is written with “TED”
why this word is not pronounced with “ID” ?
thanks so much
Thank you so much for the video. I’m having one question regarding the quiz: Can it be that it is a little programming mistake regarding pronunciation of ed – in appreciated? – I clicked on – – id and it was shown as a mistake and the solution was shown as being – d. When I pronounce the word – appreciated – I have the feeling that I pronounce the ed ending – as id and not as d. – – I love all your work and also appreciate all your effort. My lines here should not come as a complaint at all. It’s just a small hint. It can happen. – thanks again for your work . best wishes, Rachel

I’ve passed the quiz and i have a question.
Why end of “negotiated” sounds like -id, but “appreciated” sounds like -d?
Both of them end with -te in their infinitive form: negotiate, appreciate.
did you find out what is right ?
Hi Rebecca, thank you.
I understood that exist three forms to pronounce the end of verbs in past tense.
But i have a question:
How I can do to identify when pronounce the “t” or “d”?
In which verbs I pronounce the “t” and which verbs the “d”?
I appreciate your support

thank u very much
thanks so much
I`m so pleased of these lessons.This is so excited way to learn English here.I don`t know to describe my feeling so i just thanks and i wish every day to finding a new one lesson.
Thank you very much
Dear Rebecca;
First of all, thank you so much for your useful lessons. I think “d” and “ed” realised as “t”after unvoised letters except “t”., and “d” after voiced letters except “d”. And they realised as “id” after D, and T. What I would like to ask you about is in the quiz there are two verbs which are “appreciate “, and “negotiate”. It is realised after the first one as”d”, and realised after the second one as”id”
Could you please explain it for me?
Thank you again for you.
Ameen.
thank you for my first lesson on this site. Now I know more.

thank you , i appreciate your efforts for u all.
Hi Rebecca! First of all, thank you for the great lessons!
I want to know if there is a reason why the pronunciations of “paid” and “said” are different. I know it’s about phonetics, but I’m a teacher and a student has asked me about it!
By the way, do you recommend a great material about phonetics?
Thanks a lot!
I’m totally confused plz tell me anyone which teacher read whole teacher’s or one teacher plz help me guz
Hi, great work, thank you Rebecca :)
Hi. I’m confused about “appreciated” pronunciation. It ends in t, I think it’s a “id” sound, but in the quiz review you say is a “d” sound. Please let me know. Thanks!!
I made the same mistake.
What do we depend on when choosing the word end?
Thanks
I also really appreciate your video lesson, but after doing the quiz and chcecking the answers I can’t understand why we pronounce ‘ed’ in the verb ‘appreciated’ as ‘d’ not ‘id’…
It was nice lesson
Thank you teacher ?
great Rebeca thanks
Hi.. Is there any way to know where to use each pronunciation.
Like, if there is a word ‘reached’ how could i know that i have to use “t” instead of “id/d”.
good day Teacher Rebecca.great .Thanks
Hi, thanks for your help us.
Hi, Rebecca thanks for the lesson. Could you please review question # 4 of the quiz?
appreciated (Id) ending sound.
Thanks!
Advise me how to start I am a beginner
appreciated [əˈpriːʃɪeɪtɪd] = ID. I guess it is just a system error
I guess too
