The suffix "ed" can produce three main sounds in English: it can be pronounced as /ɪd/ (as in "wanted"), /t/ (as in "walked"), or /d/ (as in "played"). The pronunciation depends on the final sound of the verb to which it is attached. If the verb ends in a voiced sound, "ed" typically sounds like /d/, while it sounds like /t/ after voiceless sounds. When the verb ends in /t/ or /d/, "ed" is pronounced as /ɪd/.
