==English==

===Etymology 1===
The letter name is ultimately from {{der|en|la|ē}}. Use of the Latin letter in (Old) English displaced, in whole or in part, five [[futhorc]] letters in the 7th century: {{m|ang|ᛖ}}, {{m|ang|ᚫ}}, {{m|ang|ᛠ}}, {{m|ang|ᛇ}}, and {{m|ang|ᛟ}}.

** {{rhymes|en|iː|s=1}}
* {{sense|phoneme}} {{IPA|en|/ɛ/|/iː/|/ɪ/|/ə/|/eɪ/}}
** In addition to the phonemes noted above, "e" can also be silent, representing no sound itself but indicating which phoneme another letter in the word represents. See the article "[[w:Silent e|Silent e]]" on Wikipedia.

<!-- Watson Kirkconnell's version has "No other spot in all the world / can touch your heart as home ―", which is less suitable here -->

=====Usage notes=====
A rarer substitute of {{m|hu|ez}}, but unlike {{m|hu||ez}}, it does not take the case of the noun it is attached to, and no definite article is used:
: {{uxi|hu|ez'''en a''' hely'''en''' ― e hely'''en'''|'''at''' this place|lit='''on''' this place}}
: {{uxi|hu|eb'''ben a''' ház'''ban''' ― e ház'''ban'''|'''in''' this house}}

Most consonant-initial postpositions can take {{m|hu||e}}, e.g. {{m|hu||e nélkül, e helyett}}, see ''[[Template:hu-comp-postp-table|Pronominal adverbs from postpositions]],'' in the column “that&nbsp;one, this&nbsp;one”. On the other hand, vowel-initial postpositions take {{m|hu||ez}} (e.g. {{m|hu||ez alatt, ez iránt}}).

==Latvian==
{{wikipedia|lang=lv}}

===Etymology===
Proposed in 1908 as part of the new Latvian spelling by the scientific commission headed by [[w:Kārlis Mīlenbahs|K. Mīlenbahs]], which was accepted and began to be taught in schools in 1909. Prior to that, Latvian had been written in German [[Fraktur]], and sporadically in [[Cyrillic]].

===Pronunciation 1===

====Letter====
[[File:Latin alphabet Ee.svg|thumb|200px|E]]
{{lv-letter|upper=E|lower=e}}

# {{Latn-def|lv|letter|7|e}}

=====Usage notes=====
The letter '''''E'''''/'''''e''''' (like its long counterpart '''''Ē'''''/'''''ē''''') represent two sounds, {{IPAchar|[ɛ]}} — {{m|lv|šaurais e||narrow e}} — and {{IPAchar|[æ]}} — {{m|lv|platais e||broad e}}. In principle, {{IPAchar|[ɛ]}} is used when there is a palatal element (the vowels ''i'', ''ī'', ''e'', ''ē'', the diphthongs ''ie'', ''ei'', and the palatal consonants ''j'', ''ķ'', ''ģ'', ''ļ'', ''ņ'', ''š'', ''ž'', ''č'', ''dž'', and, in the old spelling, ''ŗ'') either in the same or in the following syllable; otherwise, {{IPAchar|[æ]}} is used. Unfortunately, some historical changes have obscured this pattern by removing some previously existing palatal elements; as a result of that, for a number of words the actual pronunciation of the letter ''e'' — {{IPAchar|[ɛ]}} or {{IPAchar|[æ]}} — must be memorized.

====Usage notes====
* In monosyllables, final ⟨{{l|frr||e}}⟩ is pronounced {{IPAchar|[e]}}, except on Sylt, where it is {{IPAchar|[ɛ]}}.
* The reduced vowel is lowered to {{IPAchar|[ɐ]}} when followed by [[coda]] ⟨{{l|frr|r}}⟩. In the insular dialects, the same usually happens also before any other coda consonant (except ⟨{{l|frr|[[l]], [[n]]}}⟩, which become [[syllabic]] instead).
* Mooring Frisian represents {{IPAchar|[ɛ]}} exclusively by ⟨{{l|frr|ä}}⟩, whereas the insular dialects represent {{IPAchar|[ə]}} by ⟨{{l|frr|i}}⟩ in certain positions (see there).
* Föhr-Amrum Frisian uses ⟨{{l|frr||ei, eu}}⟩ for the diphthongs {{IPAchar|[aɪ̯]}}, {{IPAchar|[ɔɪ̯]}} as in German. The other dialects spell phonetically ⟨{{l|frr||ai, oi}}⟩.

====Usage notes====
This particle accompanies several tonal changes, as well as a simplification or elision of the coda of the possessed noun in some cases. Many nouns can be linked directly in possessive constructions without using this particle, chiefly those that denotes humans or animals when used in the singular, although it is impossible to predict exactly which nouns will follow which pattern based on semantics, ancestral noun class, or morphology.
