Oo is 'e', then? Trivia Quiz

Is 'e' magic? Sometimes!

Many words are lonely, and need a friend. One of the best is 'e'. At the end of a word, this magic letter can change a vowel sound from the usual phonetic to the alphabetic - the dangerous word, "cut" softens and becomes "cute" when joined by 'e'.

About that porkpie...if the size was 3.14, you'd be a tiny baby.
