I have an "E" problem.

Youngster dropping an E on teeming Spanish island (8) T?N?R?F? The answer is obviously TENERIFE (Spanish island), but I'm having trouble with the parsing. RIFE is fine for "teeming", but "Youngster dropping an E is TE(E)N, so where does the other E come from?

Chambers clearly shows that the second meaning of TEEN (injury, affliction, grief etc) can also be spelt TEENE or TENE, but the first meaning of TEEN (standing for TEENAGER) does not have these options.
