Pay close attention to the verbs ending in “ed”
Yesterday was so busy! At the office, I worked hard with my team. We developed a new advertising plan. Our meeting lasted about two hours. I remembered an advertising plan that worked five years ago, and I suggested we try that again. We needed to get the manager's approval. We called him on the office phone. He admitted that the idea seemed good, but he believed we should lower the budget. We reported our numbers to him and talked about the budget for a long time. Finally, he decided to give us the money we wanted.
We form the past simple and past participle of regular verbs by adding the suffix”ed”.
The final “ed” has three sounds: /d/ , /id/,/t/
