If the word ends in a consonant-vowel-consonant pattern it gets a double consonant +ED

e.g. RUB > RUBBED HOP > HOPPED

If the word ends in a consonant-vowel-consonant pattern it gets a double consonant +ING

e.g. RUB > RUBBING HOP > HOPPING

Words ending in w,x,y,z don't follow this rule, just add ED or ING e.g. snowed, snowing, boxed, boxing
