'There aren=E2=80=99t two different spellings for the word. It should be sp=
elt
=E2=80=98queuing=E2=80=99. It is common to leave the last =E2=80=98e=E2=80=
=99 out when making present
continuous tense forms, meaning words ending with =E2=80=98-ing=E2=80=99. E=

=E2=80=98take=E2=80=99, and =E2=80=98joke=E2=80=99.'
