ok!"ed" is pronounced "d" aftervoiced sounds which are:/b/,/g/,/z/,/v/,/m/,/n/,/l/,/w/,/j/,the other sounds can't be written here but they are pronounced like this:/dz/,/tch/the/.

Now, your rule is completed and more usefulSmile

what about when to pronounce "d"?you should be more clearand tell about thevoiced and voiceless sounds.But it's good to let people know what you know because I think that a lot of people(non-natives) don't know this kind of rules.
