I wouldn't use either of them.

In this word, we pronounce the letter "e" as [e].

It's very unlikely that you'd need to tell anyone that the letter "e" is pronounced in just one way in a whole sentence. That's why I changed it to "this word".

Yes, I meant "in this word", thank you.

Is it correct to say "In this word, the letter "e" sounds like [e]."?
