Hi to everyone!

I made some mistakes writing the rules in yesterday�s ws.

Please forgive me, just I had a really bad day. Here the correction:

 

LITTLE RULE:

� If the verb ends in �e�, drop the �e� and add -ING (take > takING)

� If the verb ends in ONE vowel + ONE consonant, double the consonant and add ING (swim > swimMING)

� The ONE syllable verbs that end in ONE consonant +ONE vowel + ONE consonant, double the final consonant and add ING (never double "w, x, y") (play > playING)

 

As you see I deleted the rule concerning the "Y", it doesn�t apply to ING ending. On the other hand, the verb "to ski" never had a "Y", my mistake since young! 

SORRY for all the inconveniences I am causing all of you....

I always say I will check twice before posting, but UPS! 

Best wishes to all

Aisha ;) 

Hello Aïsha :-D

 No problem - you will be forgiven for your "litle " ( little ? ) rule  ; +...I love your verb " to sky " ! 

You are not causing ANY inconveniences - but sharing  great ws ;-))

Thank you anyway for telling us ! You rock !

I concur with the sentiments of my Gallic colleagues, who, I am sure, speak for the vast majority of the members of this site. You are one in a million, Aisha! 

Personally, when I see that there is a mistake in one of my worksheets, I normally sneak back and update the offending document a few days later and hope nobody notices. 

BTW, if anybody does notice a mistake in one of my worksheets, please tell me.
