Would these be derived terms? Obviously I didn't manually make of this list, got this from Category:English verbs -- 203.171.195.40 17:43, 16 April 2009 (UTC)
Pronunciation
[edit]According to the LPD,
Before l (e.g., transˈliterate) and an unstressed vowel sound (e.g., ˈtransit), /s/ is usual. Before other consonants or a stressed vowel sound (e.g., transˈact), AmE prefers /s/. This also applies in any word where the prefix is felt as separate (e.g., ˌtransˌcontiˈnental). The final consonant is often lost before any /s/ at the beginning of a stem (e.g., in transcribe).
