Philip @philiprob.bsky.social · 15/12/2024The full rule that I was taught is 'I before e except after c but only when there is an 'ee' sound in the word. Even then there are exceptions to this. Such as seize. Go figure.🤔 110
Ballroom Jam @ballroomjam.bsky.social · 16/12/2024As others have said it's "I before e except after c" Prophecies, concierge, species, paciest, lacier, racier, fancied etc. etc. 010
