Note
The past form of the verb hot, which means to heat or to grow lively, not of the adjective. The final t doubles before the ending, as in hotting, and one spelling serves both the simple past and the perfect: things hotted up, or have hotted up. Because the verb covers both making and becoming, it can take an object (they hotted the engine) or stand alone (the debate hotted).
