Part of Speech: Verb

Meaning: Past tense of omit: left out, either by mistake or on purpose.

Synonyms: left out, excluded, skipped, dropped

How to Spell Omitted

Syllables: o - mit - ted

Tricky part: The m is single but the t doubles before ed, because omit is stressed on mit. Students often double the wrong letter.

Memory tip: Picture one mitt catching two tennis balls: one m in o-mit, then tt before ed.

Usage Examples

Example 1: The editor omitted the last paragraph to save space.

Example 2: I accidentally omitted the units in my physics answer.

Example 3: Nobody was omitted from the class photo this year.
