DEAR YOU, STOP ADDING "ED" TO THESE WORDS!🚫 BY SAKEENAH WRITES
Not every word in English carries an "ED" at the end, even if it's in past tense. Below are 15 words you should quit adding "ED" to.
1. Cost – The price of something in the past is not "costed," it's simply cost.
2. Cut – Whether past or present, it's cut, not "cutted."
3. Hit – Yesterday, you hit, not "hitted."
4. Opportune – It's not "opportuned." It is opportune, anywhere and anytime.
5. Hurt – "Hurted" is incorrect; the past tense is still hurt.
6. Bet – You didn’t "betted" on the game; you bet on it.
7. Let – It's not "letted"; the past form is also let.
8. Read – While pronounced differently in the past, it’s still spelled read, not "readed."
9. Shut – Doors aren’t "shutted"; they are simply shut.
10. Spread – It's not "spreaded"; both present and past are spread.
11. Burst – "Bursted" is a no-go; it's burst in any tense.
12. Cast – Actors were cast, not "casted," in a movie.
13. Fit – Clothes that fit you yesterday still fit, not "fitted."
14. Split – It's split, not "splitted."
15. Set – Tables were set, not "setted."
