ORTOGRAFÍA

1. Cuando un verbo termina en y, precedida por una consonante, se cambia la y por i y se le agrega 
es para formar la tercera persona singular del presente. 
      Ejemplos: he studies pero: he plays (precedido por una vocal). 
2. Cuando un verbo termina en sonido de s, sh, ch, x, se le agrega es para formar la tercera persona 
singular. Ejemplos: kiss (besar), kisses; wash, washes; reach, reaches; fix, fixes
3: Cuando un verbo termina en y, precedida por una consonante, se cambia por i y se le agrega ed 
para formar el pasado. Ejemplos: he hurried; pero: he played (precedido por una vocal). 
4. Los sustantivos terminados en y, precedida por una consonante, forman su plural cambiando la
 por i y agregando la terminación es. Ejemplos: city, cities family, families 
5. Los sustantivos terminados en s, sh, ch, x, forman su plural agregando es. 
  Ejemplos: dress, dresses fox, foxes 
6. Los sustantivos terminados en efe forman su plural cambiando la f por v y agregando es
   Ejemplos: wife, wives knife, knives, loaf, loaves 
7. Si el verbo termina en e, se suprime ésta antes de agregar ing
    Ejemplos: give,giving, come, coming . 
Verbos monosílabos que terminan en una sola consonante, precedida de una sola vocal, duplicaran
la consonante final antes de agregar ing
    Ejemplos. put, putting, stop, stopping. 
Esta regla se aplican también a los verbos polisílabos cuando la última sílaba lleva el acento.
    Ejemplo: begin, beginning pero: visit, visiting (lleva el acento en la primera sílaba). 
8. Verbos monosílabos que terminan en una sola consonante, precedidos de una sola vocal, 
duplicarán la consonante final antes de agregar ed.
       Ejemplos: drop, dropped; stop, stopped 
Esta regla se aplicará también a los verbos polisílabos cuando la última sílaba lleva el acento. 
       Ejemplos: refer (referir), referred pero: visit, visited (lleva el acento en la primera sílaba). 
Todos los verbos regulares que duplican la consonante final para formar el gerundio sufren el 
mismo cambio en la formación del pasado. Ejemplos: drop, dropping, dropped, stop, stopping, stopped.
