Hi,
The gerund of "stop" is "stopping", the gerund of "get" is "getting" right?
The rule is to double the last consonant if the three last letter are in the consonant-vowel-consonant sequence. Correct?
But the gerund of "abandon" is "abandoning", same for "chatter" and "gossip". Am I still right? You do not double the last consonant despite the consonant-vowel-consonant sequence. Why? Does it have something to do with the length of the word?
