About this document

Rules for Adding "ing" Endings by René Ramos is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document discusses rules for adding the "-ing" ending to verbs to show the present tense. There are three basic rules: 1) add "-ing" to most words, keeping any final "y"; 2) if the word ends in "e", drop the "e" and add "-ing"; 3) if the word is short and ends with a vowel-consonant, double the final consonant and add "-ing". There are also special cases where words with double vowels or ending in "ie" are exceptions.
