Rebut doubles the t in rebutted, rebutting and rebuttal (not 'rebuted').

Rebutted, rebutting और rebuttal में t दो बार आता है ('rebuted' गलत है)।

?Which word?

Do not confuse rebut (to argue that something is false) and refute (to prove that something is false), though they are often used in the same way.

Rebut (किसी बात को गलत बताते हुए तर्क देना) और refute (किसी बात को गलत सिद्ध करना) में भ्रमित न हों, हालाँकि इनका प्रयोग अक्सर एक जैसा होता है।
