O Write i before e except after c or when sounded like a as in eighty and sleigh.

Drop the final e before a suffix beginning with a vowel but not before a suffix beginning with a consonant.

O Double the final consonant preceded by a single vowel in an accented syllable or one-syllable word before adding a suffix that begins with a vowel.

Change the y to an i before adding a suffix, unless the suffix begins with i.
