    The document provides rules for adding suffixes like "-ing", "-ed", "-er", and "-est" to one-syllable words. It states that for words ending in a consonant-vowel-consonant combination, the final consonant is doubled before adding those suffixes, except when the word ends in w, x, or y. However, when adding "-ed" to verbs or "-er" and "-est" to adjectives, the final consonant is doubled only if the base word ends in a consonant-vowel-consonant combination.
