Incorrect spelling, explanation: a double -m letter in a word isn’t so common in the English language, and because of that many English users make a mistake in the spelling of recommended as they tend to write it with a single -m letter. It results in recomended, which is wrong as the only correct spelling is recommended.
Correct spelling, explanation: recommended is an English regular verb and its base form is recommend. The word itself has its origin in the Latin form commendare, which used to mean commit to the care of.
