I can spell words using the suffix -ed.

Show transcript
A suffix is a letter or group of letters at the end of a word which creates another word. The past tense of some verbs may sound like they end in 'id', 't' or 'd', but they are spelt using '-ed'. If the verb ends in two consonant letters, the ending is simply added on. If the verb ends in a consonant + 'y', the 'y' is changed to 'i' before 'ed' is added. If the root word ends in a consonant + 'e', the 'e' is removed before the suffix is added.
