Words with 'ed' in the end that don't pronounce it?

Are they words with 'ed' that don't pronounce it? I've been pronouncing these words all with 'tid' for ed, like 'inverted'> inverTID. I wonder if there're words spelled with ted but it is pronounced only with t? Thanks!

For some words (punish, mash, jump, etc..) the past-tense form with the "ed" is pronounced like a "t" as follows:

"punished" pronounced "pun - isht"
"mashed" pronounced "masht"
"jump" pronounced "jumpt"

If the word ends with "ed", it is not necessarily pronounce "ted". It could be as follows:

"fill" becomes "filled" and pronounced as "filld" not "fill-ted"
"spill" becomes "spilled" and is pronounced as "spilld" not "spill-ted"

While the past-tense of some other words are completely different, as follows:

"spit" becomes "spat"
"take" becomes "took"
"eat" becomes "ate"
"speak" becomes "spoke"
"fit" becomes "fat" ... just kidding, it's "fitted"

None that I can think of - the final ED would be pronounced as it indicates a change in tense.
