I before E except after C. That's what I remember learning in grade school. While this guideline was intended to help in spelling, as I got older I began noticing exceptions to this rule. Words like "weird", "foreign," and "caffeine" defy this principle, showcasing the inherent intricacies in the language's spelling patterns.
