"Still lie the sheltering snows, undimmed and white;
And reigns the winter's pregnant silence still;
No sign of spring, save that the catkins fill,
And willow stems grow daily red and bright.
These are days when ancients held a rite
Of expiation for the old year's ill,
And prayer to purify the new year's will."
Helen Hunt Jackson, A Calendar of Sonnet's: February

How to find the syllabe stressed in a word ? Here is a little help to master this notion for the words with the most common endings.
The emphasis is on the second to last syllabe for the words finishing in :
-ION (pollution)
-IC (ironic)
-ITY (quality)
-ETY (anxiety)
-IBLE (impossible)
-SIVE (expensive)
-ISH (abolish)
Now, the pronunciation of the verbs in -ED :
ED is pronunced /d/ after the majority of the sound consonants.
Examples : robbed, puzzled
ED is pronunced /t/ after /p/ - /f/ - /s/ - /k/.
Examples : asked, missed
ED is pronunced /id/ after /t/ and /d/.
Examples : dominated, arrested
So, I hope that this aid will you help to improve your pronunciation.
