Double the last consonant + ‑edgig → gigged

Fiil tek bir sesli + tek bir sessiz harfle bitiyor ve vurgu son hecede olduğu için son sessiz harf ikilenir, sonra -ed eklenir.

Same rule: stop → stopped · plan → planned · drop → dropped

Pronunciation of -ed
/t/worked /d/played /ɪd/wanted

Fiil yumuşak (ötümlü) bir ünsüzle, /g/ sesiyle bittiği için -ed /d/ okunur; yeni hece eklenmez. gigged /gɪgd/
