Correct spelling, explanation: this form is the correct one as it is the word combined from two parts: re and commend (to mention). As the word of Latin origin (commendare; recommendare), it is spelled as such. Therefore the spelling is recommend, not reccommend. Doubling the consonant c is unnecessary.
Definition of recommend:
verb, to advertise something as very good; to advise to use something or some service
I strongly recommend this shampoo, my hair is amazing after using it!
I wouldn’t recommend going to this library. The staff is very rude.
Incorrect spelling, explanation: double c in this word is the incorrect way to spell it, as the word recommend comes from Latin recommendare, so we spell it as the original. Thus reccommend is a wrong form and the correct one is recommend.

I’ve been examining out some of these definitions and I can state pretty clever idea. I will make sure to save this website.
