but if there is no e after the g, it would be pronounced as a hard g (as in "green"), not as a soft g (as in "gentle"). this is why i added the e, the same as why there is an e but no u in french (hard g would be spelled chronophague).
what is the rule that you are basing your spelling on ?
(oh and no need to apologise for pedantry here... you're among friends...)
