Чи замислювалися ви коли-небудь, чому існують як travelling, так і traveling? 🤔
🌷What’s the rule?
In British English, we double (подвоюємо) the final -l when adding endings like -ing, -ed, -er to words ending in a single vowel + l.
🇬🇧 British English:
🌺travelling
🌺cancelled
🌺counsellor
🌺modelling
Double the -l if the final syllable (склад) is stressed (наголошений) (even in American English):
🇺🇸 American English:
🌺tráveling
🌺cánceled
BUT
🌺compélling
🌺contrólled
