Why "i" comes before "e" except after "c". P: e, will you stand between these two hooligans since they can't seem to get along? E: Yes, Miss P.
I called C four iiii’s That started the fight
Not in public he’s not, ya lech.

And when sounded like “A” as in neighbor and weigh.
Always wanting to be pc

The English language has almost as many exceptions as rules.
I before E except after C (except for the exceptions). That’s what makes the language so hard. We have to memorize all those exceptions.
I before E except after C and unless you have a beige foreign neighbor that pulls a feisty heist

Epic Cops statement is neci! I men nice!!
I thought it was all because they couldn’t C I to I
The i has a black eye, while the c can’t see without his glasses…weird.
Hmmmm, “I” before “E” except after “C.” That’s weird.

F U NE M?OS, V F M!F U NE X?OS, V F X!OK N, M N X!
I before E except after Cor sounds like “ay” as in“Neighbor” or “Weigh”
but “Weird” is still an exception
Give peice a chance!
That rule is no longer taught in schools. There are 927 words in English (not counting Keith) where e comes before i without a c.
