Basic Suffix Spelling Rules

Suffixes are added to the end of words to make new words. There are two types of suffixes: vowel and consonant. Vowel suffixes include endings such as -ed, -er,-es, -end, and -ing. Consonant suffixes include endings such as -s, -less, -ness, -ment, and -ly.

The following are the basic rules of using suffixes in the English language.

Rule 1: Double the Consonant

When a word ends in a short vowel sound and a single consonant, you double the last letter. Examples of this rule are:

Fat + er = Fatter

Flip + ed = flipped

Mud + y = muddy

Shop + ed = shopped

Swim + ing = swimming

When a word has more than one syllable and ends with the letter "l" you will double the "l" when adding the suffix. Examples include:

Cancel + ed = cancelled

Control + ed = controlled

Propel + er = propeller

Compel + ing = compelling

Fulfil + ment = fulfillment

Keep in mind that the doubling rule does not apply if the word ends in "w," "x" or "y."
