F, L, and S often double after a short vowel at the end of a base word (e.g. off, bell, miss).
📖 Detailed Explanation
We often double F, L, and S after a SINGLE vowel at the end of a BASE word. This is sometimes called the "FLOSS rule" (F, L, O-S, S).
💡 Tips to Remember
- FLOSS: double F, L, and S after short vowel
- Many exceptions exist (if, of, us, bus)
- Does not apply to longer words or suffixes
