hi there,

How can I pronounce the 'ed' in words such as 'cooked' and 'booked'? Are they said as /kukt/ and /bukt/ or /kuked/ and /buked/?

If you're using IPA or XS, /kukt/ would be pronounced cookt (with the "oo" as in "coop"); /kuked/ would be pronounced cookayd (with the "oo" as in "coop"). I can assure you they are most definitely not pronounced like that at all. They are actually /kʊkt/ ; with the /t/ usually realized as [ ? ] in NAE.

hi there,

Thanks a lot. About glottal stop, do you think that the 'I'd' in an expression: 'I'd like to' is a glottal stop?

I don't think so. If you put in a glottal stop, it would sound like Ite like to. I would pronounce it [ aId l@Ik_} tu ] .

Hmmm. I don't know of a case where t becomes a glottal stop after a consonant. After a vowel, certainly, but not after a consonant.

Yeah, you're right. I made a mistake. But would it be realized as Telephone [T]

or as [t_}] ?
