How Do You Spell EXISTED?

Pronunciation: [ɛɡzˈɪstɪd] (IPA)

The spelling of the word "existed" follows a common English rule for suffixes. The base word "exist" is pronounced /ɪɡˈzɪst/ and ends with the /st/ sound. To add the past tense suffix "-ed," we simply add the sound /ɪd/ to the end, resulting in the phonetic transcription /ɪɡˈzɪstɪd/. This same pattern can be seen in other words such as "listened" and "wished." Remembering this pattern can help with spelling and pronouncing past tense verbs in English.

Etymology of EXISTED

The word "existed" comes from the Latin word "existere", which is derived from the combination of "ex-" (meaning "out") and "sistere" (meaning "stand", "stop", or "begin"). In Latin, the word "existere" initially referred to the act of coming into being, emerging, or appearing. Over time, it evolved to encompass the meaning of "existing" or "being" in its current sense. From Latin, the word made its way into English, retaining its meaning of being or having reality.
