Evaluated it

I just have a simple question. How do you say "evaluated it"? Do you skip "ed"? Because if you don't, you say like evaluatidit, linking ti with dit.

Thanks,

No, don't skip it! I say evaluadidit. (American English).

  • No, don't skip it!
  • I say evaluadidit.
  • (American English).
  • In British English, some people might skip the T's and replace them with glottal stops, so you might mistakenly assume there are some syllables missing: evalua(t) a di(t) .
  • In any case, the syllable corresponding to "ed" is always there.
