I am sure this has been addressed but I can't find it in a search (even using site: ___)
For Traditional Spelling II, Lesson 28:
Why is 'played' considered two syllables?
I'm preparing for this coming week and realize that 'played' has a bullet between the base word and the suffix. When I say the word, it's one syllable. Same as 'cried'.
The dictionary also shows it as one syllable.
What am I missing?
Thanks!
