Why Double the Letter? The FLOSS Rule Explained 🦷

Why do we spell "fill" with two ls, but we only hear one? 🤔 In this video, we introduce our very first major spelling rule: The floss Rule. What is the floss Rule? Sometimes, a word needs a "bonus letter" at the end to be spelled correctly. As explained in the lesson, if a one-syllable word has just one vowel and ends in f, l, or s, you usually double the final letter! The Rule Breakdown: One Vowel: The word must have a short vowel (like the i in fill or o in moss). The Bonus Letter: We add an extra f, l, or s at the end. Note: The extra letter is silent—it doesn't make a new sound! The "z" Twist: Watch until the end to see the few special words ending in z (like buzz and jazz) that also follow this rule. Words practiced in this lesson: fill, well, tell, Bill, dull, puff, buff, moss, pass, less.
