1. There are three ways to pronounce the words ending with -s:

- [s] after a voiceless sound such as k, f, p, t, or θ (voiceless sound produces no vibration of vocal chords): cats, hats, weeks
- [z] after a voiced sound such as ð, b, d, g, j, l, m, n, <span>ŋ, r, v, w </span>(voiced sound produces vibration of vocal chords): dogs, gloves, wolves, lives
- [ɪz] after these sounds: [tʃ], [dʒ], [s], [z] (because it would be impossible to pronounce such plural words without an additional sound [ɪ]: cockroaches, watches, bridges, buses, traces, blazes

2. There are three ways to pronounce the words ending with -d:

- [d] after a voiced sound except for d, such as ð, b, g, j, l, m, n, ŋ, r, v, w (voiced sound produces vibration of vocal chords): stayed, raised, moved, returned
- [t] after a voiceless sound except for t, such as k, f, p, or θ (voiceless sound produces no vibration of vocal chords): stopped, watched, coughed, finished
- [ɪd] after d or t: departed, dated, attended, ended
