How to pronunce the ending -ed in the Past Simple

The past simple tense of all regular verbs end in -ed. For example:

     work --- worked
     listen --- listened
     dance --- danced
     study --- studied

We can pronounce the ending -ed in 3 ways - / Id / or / t / or / d /

In the following chart you can see different examples:

If the base verb ends in one of these sounds:		example base verb*:	example with -ed:	pronounce the -ed:
unvoiced	/t/	want, visit, repeat, start	wanted, visited, repeated, started	/ Id /
voiced	/d/	end, need, land	ended, needed, landed
unvoiced	/p/	hope, stop	hoped, stopped	/ t /
