    I liked to review this lesson, because sometimes, you are listening someting but you don't pay attention how the pronunciation really is. And, I also realise that the pronunciation of the verb to love is, actually, very similar to the verb to laugh; and it's important when you have to pronounce those verbs on past.

    I learned how to pronounce regular verbs in past. This is difficult because sometimes the sounds are very similar. But with each pronunciation rules, such as: when the verb ends in ch, sh, gh, s, etc to pronounce ending in "t". When the verb ends in n, m, vowel sounds etc, the pronunciation ends in "d" and finally when the verb ends in t or d, the pronunciation ends in "id". This is very important when we talk to other people because we may be talking in present and past at the same time if we do not pronounce correctly.

    My score was 100%.

    Very interesting work.

  21. The theory is very easy, but when you are in a conversation is very difficult to pronounce in the correct way, because you don´t have time to think :D. But, i think that the better way to understand and apply in the correct way all this theory is practicing in a real conversation.

    My score was 98%.
