Let\u2019s find out!<\/p>\n<p>One of the ways to know that is to pay attention to your vocal cords and to the letters that come before \u201c-ED\u201d: Do they make your vocal cords vibrate or not?<\/p>\n<p>If your vocal cords vibrate, \u2192 -ED must sound like a \u201cd\u201d. Say it after me:<\/p>\n<p>\u200d<em>Sobbed. Traveled.<\/em><br \/>\nIf your vocal cords don\u2019t vibrate, \u2192 -ED must sound like a \u201ct\u201d. Let\u2019s try it!<\/p>\n<p>\u200d<em>Liked.
