Spelling rule

Double the last consonant + ‑edjot → jotted

Fiil tek bir sesli + tek bir sessiz harfle bitiyor ve vurgu son hecede olduğu için son sessiz harf ikilenir, sonra -ed eklenir.

Same rule: stop → stopped · plan → planned · drop → dropped

Pronunciation of -ed
/t/worked /d/played /ɪd/wanted

Fiil /t/ sesiyle bittiği için -ed ayrı bir hece olur ve /ɪd/ okunur. jotted /dʒɑːtɪd/
