Quote context

(KIDS CHATTERING)

- Boy, you really did it. You were great. You're our class champion.

- You didn't think I could do it, did you? But I did it.

- And tomorrow you'll represent our class in the all-school spelling bee.

- I before e, except after c. Let's see. I before e, except after h. No, I after e after c. 'I before e after... No, e before I after c.

- When a word has a c for an ending, like frolic, or colic, or comic, and mimic, and picnic, you always add a k before appending. You know, sticking an e, or I, or y. For example, colicky, frolicker, picnicker, mimicker, and hickory, dickory, docker.

- 'On the other hand, if softness is maintained,' page 43, 'then e must be retained after c.' -You mean, before the ending 'able'?

- Right, that keeps the spelling stable.

- So that's why.

- Of course. Let's try.
