Best Answer

Is your question regarding using "i.e." as opposed to "e.g."?

If it is, "i.e." is an abbreviation for the Latin "that is."

Use "e.g." to give a few examples to illustrate your point. (implies you're giving them a taste of what you're talking about)

Use "i.e." to give a comprehensive set of examples to illustrate your point. (implies ONLY the stuff you've specifically listed is what you're talking about...that's it's a comprehensive list)

2nd Answer:

To help you remember . . . e.g. stands for 'exempli gratis', latin for 'free example.

I.e. stands for 'id est', or 'that is'.
