Il corpo di Philip Kleinman, famoso architetto americano, viene ritrovato in una stanza di Palazzo Carli, il luogo in cui si è appena svolta una conferenza, a cui lo stesso Kleinman ha partecipato. Accanto al cadavere viene ritrovato un foglietto di carta su cui c'è scritto il numero 88. Quale sarà mai il significato di questo numero?  E chi è l'assassino?

Think you’ve mastered regular verbs? Think again! In this episode of British Pronunciation Tips, we uncover the hidden secret of -ed endings — why words like worked, played, and wanted sound so different.

You’ll learn how the pronunciation of -ed changes depending on the final sound of the verb — becoming /t/, /d/, or /ɪd/ for clarity and ease of speaking. We’ll break down the rules, explore plenty of examples, and test your ear to help you hear (and say) the difference naturally.

By the end, you’ll know exactly when to use each ending — and your past tense verbs will sound smoother, clearer, and more native-like.

Played, Worked, Wanted: Mastering the Secret of -ed Endings

Once you can positively identify what your ultimate goal is, I want you to divide these goals into smaller goals or you can say this is the part where you lower your goals a little, and this is ok. It doesn’t make you a lesser human being. How many goals have been unfulfilled because the initial expectation was too high? Too many learners just give up completely. Lower your goal until you reach a base point which you can reach within 7 days. Once you have achieved this base point, work your way up to the next 7 days and then the 7 days further and so forth. You can have many of these lower goals or outpost goals, as I like to call them. These outposts will give an indication of your learning journey and whether it is feasible to continue on the same path. If something doesn’t work, modify it to suit the problems you face in your learning. Make sure you also modify your outpost based on how much time you are prepared to spend on your learning. Be realistic about it. If you are tired at the end of the day, do not schedule learning time at this time or at least try to cut down on learning at this hour. At the end of the day, you know your mental state better than anyone else.

In this episode, I explain how the third eye chakra, or Ajna, supports language learning by enhancing pattern recognition, clarity, and insight. I also show how studying grammar, vocabulary, writing, speaking, listening, and memorization can in turn heal and strengthen the third eye chakra. Supported by research in neuroscience and education, this episode emphasizes that as you nurture Ajna through mindful study, you don’t just gain fluency—you deepen your intuition, self-awareness, and connection to the language.
