Correct spelling, explanation: the word commited entered English in the times of late Middle English directly from a Latin form committere, which could be translated as join or entrust. The Latin version of committed, on the other hand, comes from the combination of two words -com, which used to mean with, and mittere, which meant send or put.

Incorrect spelling, explanation: the base form of the word committed is to commit and that’s why a common mistake is to spell the past and past participle form as commited. However, according to the rule, when there is a single vowel before the last consonant in a word, we need to double that consonant. Therefore, the only correct form is committed.
