These words follow the doubling rule, where the final consonant doubles when adding a vowel suffix to a word ending in a single short vowel and one consonant.
For example:
flap + -ing flapping
dip + -ed dipped
This pattern helps keep the vowel sounds short and clear.
The list below includes examples to help you recognise and apply this rule.
