Let's look at some ED endings. ED endings that are really pronounced as T first an unvoiced group. Ripped, tapped, kissed, missed, fished, cached, and a voiced group. Handed, started. The medial T becomes a soft D. It's not a complete D but it goes toward a D. We don't say later, better, beautiful. We say later, better, beautiful. Later would be better, beautiful. Also, the final T when it's followed by a word beginning with the vowel. Again, it becomes in effect a medial T. There's a vowel on both sides of it so it gets softened to a D. Not get over there but get over there. Not right to away but right away. Meet me at eight? No, meet me at eight. Get over there right away. Meet me at eight. The medial T.
