Pada penjelasan kali ini, saya ulas bagaimana penulisan dan penambahan ed ending dalam bahasa inggris, termasuk contoh-contohnya dalam kalimat.
Ketahuilah bahwa tidak semua kata yang berakhiran “ed” adalah verb (kata kerja). Kadang bisa juga sebagai adjective (Kata sifat).
Secara umum, kata kerja yang mendapat tambahan ed tidak mengalami perubahan. Perhatikan tabel berikut:
Infinitive ED form to play played to wait waited to work worked to rain rained
- He played football with his brother.
- I waited to go with him.
- She worked for her own family.
- It rained cats and dogs.
Adapun penambahan ed dalam format adjective ada dalam past participle.
Simak contoh berikut:
Present Participle Past Participle Interesting (menarik) interested (tertarik) boring (membosankan) bored (bosan) Impressing (Mengesankan) Impressed (terkesan) Amazing (mengagumkan) amazed (terkagum)
Pengecualian Penulisan ED
Kata-kata dibawah ini merupakan sederetan ed ending yang mengalami pengecualian.
1). Jika akhiran katanya berupa huruf E, maka cukup tambahkan D.
Infinitive ED form to live lived to love loved to smile smiled to dance danced
- I lived in Indonesia.
- I loved Banana you gaved.
- He smiled like a dog.
- They danced in the middle of class.
2). Jika suku kata terakhirnya terdiri dari Consonant + Vowel + Consonant (pada akhir kata), serta dalam keadaan stress, maka consonant terakhir tersebut digandakan, lalu ditambahkan ED.

- The man stopped the car.
- He admitted that i was here yesterday.
