Speech & Pronunciation

-et + it

Hello

How can we speak the sentences which consist of words end "-ed" and follow them pronoun "it". Examples:

I noted it.

I deleted it.

How can we speak those sentences because it's hard to speak them.

Do we speak them normally?

Thanks & Regards

Harumph! Those are nothing! Try these: edited it; limited it; inhabited it, inherited it, merited it If AmE, use the tapped t (just like a d) for the internal t sounds.

  • Harumph!
  • Those are nothing!
  • Try these: edited it; limited it; inhabited it, inherited it, merited it If AmE, use the tapped t (just like a d) for the internal t sounds.
  • Pronounce as if one long word.
  • Keep the stress just where it is in the verb, leaving all the trailing syllables unstressed.
