Examples
- I write a list before shopping.
- She writes a message to her friend.
- Please write your name here.
- We wrote a card yesterday.
- He wrote the address on paper.
- Do they write emails at work?
Read-aloud uses a synthetic English voice on your device. Quality and availability vary; it does not assess pronunciation.
No English device voice is available. You can still read the examples.
Watch out
The past is irregular: say wrote, not writed.
