A2- Revision:
1. The Past tense with used to .
* S + used to + V: §· tõng/ Thêng lµm g× trong qu¸ khø mµ b©y giê kh«ng lµm n÷a.
I used to live in Nha trang when I was six.
* S + be/ get + used to + N/ V.ing : Quen dÇn víi/ ThÝch nghi víi.
I am used to getting up early.
I am used to cold weather.
* To be accustomered to + N/ Ving.
2. Pronunciation V-ed.
Có 3 cách phát âm đuôi ‘-ed’ là:  /ɪd/ , /t/ hay /d/.
‘ed’ sẽ được đọc là /t/ (vô thanh) hoặc /d/ (hữu thanh) phụ thuộc vào âm kết thúc của
động từ là âm vô thanh hay âm hữu thanh.
* Âm vô thanh: Dây thanh quản ngừng rung khi âm vô thanh được phát ra
* Âm hữu thanh: Dây thanh quản tiếp tục rung khi đó
1. ‘ed’đọc là /t/:
Nếu một từ kết thúc bằng một âm vô thanh thì ‘ed’ sẽ được đọc theo cách vô thanh,
nghĩa là /t/
Cụ thể, những từ kết thúc bằng các âm: /ʧ/, /s/, /k/, /f/, /p/, /θ/, /∫/ (cách
nhớ: chợ xa cà phê phải thiếu sữa) thì ‘ed’ sẽ được đọc là /t/
Ví dụ: watched /wɒtʃt/, missed /mɪst/ ,…
2. ‘ed’ sẽ được đọc là /d/: Nếu một từ kết thúc bằng một âm hữu thanh thì ‘ed’ sẽ
được đọc theo cách hữu thanh, nghĩa là /t/
Ví dụ: lived /lɪvd/, allowed /əˈlaʊd/
3. ‘ed’ đọc là /ɪd/
Một động từ tận cùng bằng /t/ hay /d/ thì ‘ed’ sẽ được đọc là /ɪd/.
Tại sao lại như vậy? Vì một chữ đã tận cùng là 't' và 'd' (hai trường hợp trên) thì chúng ta
không thể đọc là 't' hoặc 'd' được bởi lẽ người nghe sẽ rất khó nhận biết hơn nữa khó có
thể đọc 2 âm 't' hoặc 2 ân 'd' kế bên nhau.
Ví dụ: wanted/ˈwɒn.tɪd/ , needed /ˈniː.dɪd/
