Using 'ge' or 'dge' | Spelling

The video tutorial explains the spelling rules for words ending in the /j/ sound, which can be spelled as -ge or -dge. The choice depends on the vowel sound preceding the /j/ sound. If a short vowel sound comes before the /j/, the word is spelled with -dge. Otherwise, it is spelled with -ge. The tutorial provides examples and practice exercises to help learners understand and apply these rules.
