Recur doubles the r in recurred, recurring and recurrence (not 'recuring').
Recur के रूपों recurred, recurring और recurrence में r दो बार आता है ('recuring' गलत है)।
§Grammar and usage
Usage: recur means to happen again, so 'recur again' is a common error of redundancy.
Usage में recur का अर्थ ही दोबारा होना है, इसलिए 'recur again' लिखना redundancy की आम गलती है।
