The English language created many -y and -ie forms, and they were spelled phonetically in various ways until the 17th and 18 century, when they were codified. There are verbs such as die, tie, vie, and lie which form a Y present participle (-ing) like their rhyming counterparts buy, fly, pry, spy, and try. This is mainly to avoid the -ieing form, which is only seen in the disputed verb form pieing.
