i before e, except after c à ªè¹»Ã�â¤

[RoobLaw]

Since I'm constantly learning example sentences Thai children use in school ( à´ç¡ä·Â·ÕèâçàÃÕ¹ ), I thought I'd post an example sentence ( àªè¹»ÃÃ⤠) I learned in 7th grade:

General Rule:

i before e, except after c

With the following execptions:

"At the height of our foreign power, neither he, nor I, could seize the idea of our weird leisure either."

height

foreign

neither

seize

weird

leisure

either

Above are the exeptions to the rule.

With every other word in the English language, it's i before e, except after c

Not as fun as:

I currently trying to memorize the paragraph that has the 20 words that use äÃéÃéǹ ( ã )

Yes, I asked my teacher today about the meaning of ³ used by itself. It means ·Õè . I didn't realize there's supposed to be spaces in between.

Use i before e except after c or when sounded like a as in neighbor or weigh; and except seize and seizure and also leisure, weird, height, and either, forfeit, and neither.

Thanks. It's actually been many years since I was in 7th grade and I probably wasn't paying attention to my teacher at the time.

My teacher probably used this sentence to remind us of common words that use i before e so we would spell them correctly.
