beggin

Asking on knees

Beggin is an informal spelling of begging, typically used in casual writing, text messages, or song lyrics to reflect colloquial pronunciation.

It appears most famously in the song "Beggin'" by The Four Seasons and later covered by Måneskin.

The dropped g mirrors how people actually say the word in everyday speech.

I'm beggin you to stay.
