silent 'e'
When the verb ends with a silent e, drop the e and add -ing:

For words that end w, x and y, do not double the last consonant; just add -ing:
enjoy becomes enjoying

two-syllable words
When words have two or more syllables ending in CVC, you must double the last consonant if the last syllable is stressed. When the last syllable is not stressed, just add -ing.

The last syllable is stressed:
commit becomes committing

The last syllable is not stressed:
whisper becomes whispering
-ie verbs

For verbs that end in -ie, change the ie to y before adding -ing:
