Enthronizing

/ɪnˈθroʊnaɪzɪŋ/ verb, noun

Definition

American spelling variant of the present participle or gerund of enthronize; the act of placing someone on a throne.

Etymology

From enthronize plus -ing suffix. American spelling drops the 'e' before -ing (like organize/organizing).

Kelly Says

American spelling conventions prefer to drop the final 'e' before -ing, so 'enthronizing' (not 'enthronizing') is the American standard for this word form.
