Hi dear teachers. May I ask about how to find the difference between i, ea,ee, a and e. For example: Imperialism, beer, list, lest... etc
How can I know that I should put i in the word Imperialism???
And how can I know when can I use ee or ea like: fear in the word beer???
Sorry for the confusing. |

There isn't a system. Reading, and a lot of it, helps.
