Is it really that important to get it right?

Yes! If you add an extra syllable where you shouldn't, like saying "look-ed" instead of "lookt", native speakers might get confused and not understand you immediately. It is a very important rule! info

How do I know if a sound is voiced or unvoiced?

Touch your throat gently! If it vibrates when you make the sound (like 'v' or 'z'), it is voiced. If it doesn't vibrate and is just air (like 's' or 'k'), it is unvoiced. Try it! front_hand

Does the spelling matter? What about the word "laughed"?

Brilliant question! It is all about the SOUND, not the spelling! "Laugh" ends in an "f" sound, which is unvoiced. So, "laughed" takes the /t/ sound! lightbulb
