I would have liked to have included RAIN and RATE because they're so much fun, but I anticipated someone would contest them on a technicality: the –ING– gets put at the beginning, not stuffed in the middle.
Here are some others that didn't make the shortlist: BED, DOES, FRY, MATS, SWARM.
There is also an entire family of words like SING ––> SINGING in which there could be ambiguity as to whether the additional –ING– has been put at the end or stuffed in the middle.
