Double the final consonant before adding the suffix.
To double the final consonant on a suffix when adding a word ending, the word must have one syllable, have a single vowel before the consonant, and end with a single consonant preceded by a single vowel. The suffix being added should begin with a vowel.
When adding a suffix to a word that ends with a single vowel followed by a single consonant, the consonant is doubled if the suffix begins with a vowel. This helps maintain the original pronunciation of the word.
There are four set of criteria for doubling the final consonant of a word when adding a suffix. If said word ends in a single consonant, has a single preceding that vowel, has an accent on the last syllable, and the suffix being added begins with a vowel, the final consonant in the word is doubled.

The rule of doubling the final consonant before adding a suffix occurs when a one-syllable word ends with a single vowel followed by a single consonant. In this case, the consonant is doubled before adding a suffix that begins with a vowel to maintain the original pronunciation and stress pattern of the word. For instance, "run" becomes "running" and "hop" becomes "hopping."
The rule for doubling the final consonant is that if a one-syllable word ends in a single vowel followed by a single consonant, you double the final consonant when adding a suffix that starts with a vowel. For example, "run" becomes "running."
When adding a suffix to a word that ends in -y preceded by a consonant, the -y changes to -i before the suffix. For example, "happy" becomes "happier" and "cry" becomes "cries".
When adding a suffix to a word that ends in -y preceded by a consonant, change the -y to -i before adding the suffix. For example, happy becomes happily, ready becomes readily.
Double consonants are used to indicate a short preceding vowel sound in English. When doubling a consonant before adding a suffix, it helps maintain the original pronunciation of the word. For example, "run" becomes "running" to retain the short "u" sound.
The word "snagged" follows the spelling rule that when a one-syllable verb ends in a single consonant preceded by a single vowel, you double the final consonant before adding the suffix "-ed."
The word "stopped" is an example of doubling the consonant when adding a suffix after a single short vowel. In this case, the final consonant 'p' is doubled before adding the suffix '-ed' to maintain the short vowel sound of the word.
