Wow, I’m glad I learned English as a baby

Check this out. It’s an explanation of how to pronounce past tense verbs, such as “called” versus “played” vs “walked” versus “visited.”

I literally never noticed how differently -ed is pronounced for different verbs. Not only that, but when I think carefully and touch my throat and all that, I still have trouble telling whether consonants are voiced or unvoiced — though this guy here picks verbs that are clear in this regard.

Wow, I’m glad I don’t have to memorize rules like this in order to pronounce past-tense verbs.
