Definition
British spelling of groveling; the present participle of grovel, or an adjective meaning showing excessive submission.
Etymology
Same etymology as groveling, but British English spelling doubles the final consonant.
Kelly Says
'Grovelling' with double-l looks so much more emphatic—the visual weight of that extra letter actually matches the word's meaning of excessive, intense submission.
