The simple present verb is SLIP. Normally, when we change a verb to the past tense, the simple past verb will have an "ED"added to it. BUT, because the word SLIP has only one (1) syllable, we double the last letter before adding the "ED". The same rule will apply for other one-syllable verbs such as: Stop - stopPED , Step - StepPED .

- is there abbreviation of the word foundation?
how to abbreviate or make the word foundation more short? thank youuuuu
Best answer
upon researching if there is such an abbreviation for fountain, there is none found. although it is a noun as well as an object, this particular 'thing' refers to a structure. yet, you may wonder why 'street', 'avenue' and 'boulevard' have abbreviations respectively as st, ave & blvd ... probably the words are easily recognized as to what the words represent.
