When combining words with suffixes, drop the final "e" only if
the suffix begins with a vowel, e.g.. bike/biking or fame/famous.
If the suffix starts with a consonant the "e" remains, e.g.. love/loveless.
The rule does not apply if the "e" is preceded by a "c" or a "g"
(courage/courageous) or if the change will cause confusion (an "e" is needed to differentiate
between singing and singeing).
