Exempli gratia (usually abbreviated e.g.) is a Latin phrase that means "for example" or "for the sake of example".[1]
The abbreviation "e.g." is often interpreted (Anglicised) as "example given".[2]
The plural exemplōrum gratiā to refer to multiple examples (separated by commas) is now not in frequent use; when used, it may be seen abbreviated as "ee.g." or even "ee.gg.", corresponding to the practice of doubling plurals in Latin abbreviations.[citation needed]
E.g. is often confused with i.e. (id est, meaning 'that is' or 'in other words').[1]
