Question
Choose the word with the correct magic “e”.
Tree
Tre
Trie
Hint:
The magic e usually comes at the end of a meaningful word. It has no sound of its own but the other vowel in the word is pronounced as itself. For example, in the word 'hide', 'e' is silent and the 'i' is pronounced as 'i' ('aai') and not as 'ee'.
The correct answer is: Tree
In the options given, 'trie' has an 'e' at the end but is not a meaningful word, which is why it cannot have a magic e. 'Tre' has an 'e' at the end but does not have any other vowel and the 'e' isn't silent, hence it cannot have a magic e. The word 'tree' ends with an 'e' and the other 'e' makes the sound 'ee' because of which it can be said that it has a magic e. Therefore, the answer is TREE.
