There is no E in Hebrew.

In fact, the Hebrew alphabet has no vowels at all. All of the letters of the alphabet are consonants.

Vowels were created in the 10th Century as "accent marks" above, below and inside Hebrew consonants.


E as in red is indicated by either a segol (3 or 5 dots under a letter, אֶ אֱ) or a tsereh (2 horizontal dots under a letter, אֵ). [non-Israelis pronounce the tsereh as an AY sound]. The Shva in modern Hebrew is also sometimes pronounced eh (it is two vertical dots under the letter אְ).

E as in reed is indicated by a khirik (1 dot under a letter, אִ).

E as in fiancée (AY sound) is indicated by the combination of a tsereh and the letter Yod אֵי
