What is the difference between "i.e" and "e.g"
Beelzebubs   Monday, November 10, 2003, 15:41 GMT
"i.e." is from Latin "id est" meaning "that is". "That is" is used to start an exlanation or expand on a previous thought.

"e.g." is from Latin "exempli gratia" meaning "for example". This is quite self explanatory.

It is common to say "for example" rather than "e.g".
"ex." is just an abbreviation of the word "example".

Fly:

i.e -> [id ehst] ´eh´= bEd, ´i´like that in ´id´ is never like the one in ´quid´, but like the one in ´slEEp´.

e.g -> ´Ekssenplee gratssiah´

Cool!

Where should I put the stress in "ekssenplee gratssiah"?
