Notice!  —  The pronunciation of any word in English (or any language at all) is not Universal.  This is because there are many different dialects of The English Language — both throughout America, and also world-wide.  The pronunciations that are presented on this site are based-upon a combination of both common usage, and the most neutral accent used in The International Common Tongue (which sounds very-much like “American English” but is more “International”).

Pronunciation Of The Word “Educated”

Educated – For this word:  The “E” is short;  the “d” is pronounced like the soft letter “g” (this is due to the placement of the letter “u” directly after it);  the “u” is pronounced as a true-schwathe “c” is hard;  and for the “-ate” suffixthe “a” is a True Long “A”, and because of the addition of the “-ed” suffix — the “t” is a flap-t;  and the final “e” merges with the “-ed” suffix; and for the “-ed” suffix — the “e” is silent, and the final “d” is a flap-d but is (often) stopped (this is the standard pronunciation of this suffix in The Common Tongue).
