Question

The verb exercise is a regular verb. Exercise has a consonant and a silent e at the end, so you should edd just d to the end. And ed is pronounced [id] in this verb.

-------------------------------
Is this explanation correct? If there are errors, correct them, please.

Answer 1

Change "edd" to "add" -- and the sound produced is [d], not [id] which implies an additional syllable. The whole word when pronounced in past tense is [ex-er-sizd].

Let me know if this doesn't make sense.
