Eg: Skill +full = skilful Will + full= wilful Rule 3:  Words of two or three syllables ending in single vowel + single consonant double the final consonant if the last syllable is stressed. Eg- Permit + ed = permitted Occur + ing =occurring Control + ed =controlled Begin + ing = beginning Rule 4:  Consonant ‘I’ is doubled in the words ending in single vowel + “I” before a suffix beginning with a vowel eg. Signal + ing = signalling Repel + ent = repellent Quarrel + ed = quarrelled Travel + er = traveller Rule 5: Words ending in silent “e”, drop the “e” before a suffix beginning with a vowel eg. Hope + ing = hoping Live + ed = lived Drive + er = driver Tire + ing= tiring Rule 6: If the suffix begins with a consonant “e” is not dropped e.g
