E

1. (history) A state in ancient China of varying location in present-day Shanxi, Henan, and Hubei.
   • 2002, The Museum of Far Eastern Antiquities‎, →ISSN, →OCLC, page 229:

     The discovery suggests also that the center of the state of E was located in the Suizao corridor in Hubei, not far from the location of E as suggested by ancient geographical works.

   • 2006, Li Feng, Landscape and Power in Early China‎, Cambridge University Press, →ISBN, →OCLC, pages 330–331:

     These three bronzes, though clearly modeled on Zhou types, are quite distinctive from the Zhou tradition. They suggest that, although the state of E served as an ally and agent of the Western Zhou state, it probably had a distinctive cultural origin of its own.

   • 2014, Liu Yang, Cast for Eternity‎, Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute, →ISBN, →OCLC, →OL, page 15:

     A six-character inscription cast inside the bowl records that this gui was made for a nobleman of the E state. Due to gaps in Chinese historical records, the exact history of the state of E is uncertain. Since the E Shu Gui was salvaged from a pile of scrap copper shipped to the Shanghai Foundry from Hubei province, some scholars have inferred that the gui was excavated from Hubei, therefore proving that the E state during the Western Zhou was located in today's Hubei province.

2. (history) Its capital, also known as Echeng and Ezhou.

E (upper case, lower case e)

1. The seventh letter of the Latvian alphabet, called e and written in the Latin script.

The letter E/e (like its long counterpart Ē/ē) represent two sounds, — šaurais e (“narrow e”) — and — platais e (“broad e”). In principle, 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, 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 — or — must be memorized.
