The " I before E " rule is most useful if we focus on instances when E and I are put together as vowel digraphs —that is, two vowels working together to form a single speech sound. With this in mind, the basic rule " I before E, except after C " is fairly reliable when IE or EI function as digraphs that produce the sound /i/ (the way.. i before e except after c or when it sounds like "aye," as in neighbor and weigh. We also know, either from experience or by instinct, that there are exceptions to the rule. A bunch of them. In fact, the rule really only works for words with the long "ee" sound as in: receive, receipt, conceive, conceit, believe, belief, brief, fierce.

Tatiana Ayazo/Rd.com. Things started off well for the old mnemonic: Cunningham found that, out of the hundreds of thousands of words he studied, "i" did indeed come before "e" roughly 75%.. Perhaps the best known mnemonic device for an English spelling rule, the full rhyme goes: I before E except after C. Or when sounded as A. As in "neighbor" or "weigh."
