Espresso English Podcast

Today I want to help you fix a pronunciation problem that I hear in a LOT of students’ English, and that is saying things like this: I ask-ed him to help me. We pre-par-ed for our trip. The mistake is with the verbs in the past, ending in -ED. The correct way to say them is: askt (not ask-ed) pre-pard (not pre-par-ed) It’s a small mistake, but unfortunately it makes it obvious that someone’s not a native English speaker. I’ll explain some simple rules to help you pronounce the -ED ending correctly every time, and we’ll practice together! If you want to improve your pronunciation fast in the next 30 days, then I’d like to invite you into my American English Pronunciation Course.   We’ll go through every sound in the English language and help you speak more clearly, so that you can be confident that other people will understand you!
