Not necessarily. Some long vowel words do end with an "e," such as "time" or "bone," but there are also long vowel words that do not end with an "e," such as "sky" or "climb." The presence of an "e" at the end of a long vowel word does not determine whether the vowel sound is long or short.
In some English words, the silent "e" at the end changes the sound of the preceding vowel from a short sound to a long sound. For example, in the word "hop," the silent "e" changes the "o" from a short o sound to a long o sound in "hope."
The E is silent, but indicates that the A has a long A sound.
yes!
The "e" at the end of the word "more" is silent. This silent e is the reason it is pronounced with a long o.
Yes. As with many words that end in a silent E, the vowel is long. (kyt)

Words that have a single E followed by a silent E have the long E sound : cede, gene, mete, scene, compete, and complete. Many long E words have a "vowel pair" with or without a silent E at the end : trees, cheese, seas, tease, breeze, and keys.
In some English words, the silent "e" at the end changes the sound of the preceding vowel from a short sound to a long sound. For example, in the word "hop," the silent "e" changes the "o" from a short o sound to a long o sound in "hope."

The "e" at the end of the word "more" is silent. This silent e is the reason it is pronounced with a long o.
A silent 'e' at the end of a word can change the preceding vowel from short to long. This phenomenon is known as the silent 'e' rule.
Some examples of words where adding a silent "e" makes the vowel long are "hope," "save," and "slide."
The silent e at the end of a word is usually there to make the vowel before it long (say its name). For example, "mat" becomes "mate" when you add an e at the end.
A silent "e" at the end of a word typically indicates that the preceding vowel is pronounced as a long vowel sound. For example, in the word "cake," the "e" is not pronounced but changes the "a" from a short sound to a long sound. Additionally, the silent "e" can help distinguish between words that would otherwise look the same, such as "cap" and "cape." Overall, it plays a crucial role in English spelling and pronunciation.
