    Pro­nun­ci­a­tion of the let­ter e in French is am­bigu­ous. There are four ways to pro­nounce it: /e/ (as e in hey, called closed e), /ɛ/ (as e in bet, called open e), /ə/ (as a in the name Tina, called schwa), or it can re­main silent; how­ever, it may also form part of a larger group of let­ters where the pro­nun­ci­a­tion may be dif­fer­ent.
