[edit]Pronunciation
IPA: /iːdʒiː/
[edit]Adverb
e.g. (not comparable)
(abbreviation, initialism) Literally, “for example”. Used to introduce an example or list of examples to illustrate what is being discussed.
Asia is a large continent, with many large nations (e.g., China, India, and Japan).
[edit]Usage notes
The list of examples following e.g. should not be exhaustive[1] (in that case, i.e. should be used) and should not be followed by et cetera or etc. as this is a tautology.
Opinion is mixed about whether this term should be italicized as although it is Latin, it has become part of standard English, and whether it should be written with a separating space "e. g." as it was originally two separate words.
If a comma is used with e.g., the comma should follow e.g.,[2] although a comma may precede the expression in some cases[3]:
"I like sweet foods, e.g., chocolate." (cf. "I like sweet foods, for example, chocolate.")
"I like sweet foods (e.g., chocolate and marzipan) and eat them often."
