"A very informative video about the Community Language Learning methodology! It was interesting to learn about the approach where students work in groups and interact to learn a language. The video helped me understand how important it is to create a supportive atmosphere for successful learning. Great job!"

We don't actually pronounce the t sound at the end of past tense verbs with ed with a puff of air, we do it by placing our tongue in the same mouth position without blowing a puff of air, we use our tongue to gently stop the air here. Try it out and see! Listen to a native speaker on a tv show say asked and you will hear exactly what I mean.
