- A letter of the Latin alphabet, written in the Latin script, representing the vowels /e/ and /eː/.
Usage notes
- Historical Latin texts did not generally distinguish short and long vowels orthographically. In modern texts and editions of older texts, the vowels are typically written ⟨E⟩ and ⟨Ē⟩ to mark the length distinction.

Latvian
Etymology
Proposed in 1908 as part of the new Latvian spelling by the scientific commission headed by K. Mīlenbahs, which was accepted and began to be taught in schools in 1909. Prior to that, Latvian had been written in German Fraktur, and sporadically in Cyrillic.

- The seventh letter of the Latvian alphabet, called e and written in the Latin script.
Usage notes
The letter E/e (like its long counterpart Ē/ē) represent two sounds, [ɛ] — šaurais e (“narrow e”) — and [æ] — platais e (“broad e”). In principle, [ɛ] is used when there is a palatal element (the vowels i, ī, e, ē, the diphthongs ie, ei, and the palatal consonants j, ķ, ģ, ļ, ņ, š, ž, č, dž, and, in the old spelling, ŗ) either in the same or in the following syllable; otherwise, [æ] is used. Unfortunately, some historical changes have obscured this pattern by removing some previously existing palatal elements; as a result of that, for a number of words the actual pronunciation of the letter e — [ɛ] or [æ] — must be memorized.

- A letter of the Luxembourgish alphabet, written in the Latin script.
Usage notes
- Long /eː/ is normally spelt ee. Before a single consonant it may be spelt e, but this is restricted to internationalisms (e.g. Meter).
- Apart from unstressed syllables, the pronunciation /ə/, /e/ also occurs in the function words ech; mech, dech, sech; meng, deng, seng; net. Otherwise these vowels are spelt Ë or É.

Mutation
- E cannot be mutated but, being a vowel, does take h-prothesis, for example with the word eliffant (“elephant”):
| radical | soft | nasal | h-prothesis |
|---|---|---|---|
| eliffant | unchanged | unchanged | heliffant |
Note: Certain mutated forms of some words can never occur in standard Welsh.
All possible mutated forms are displayed for convenience.
