Steps
Understand the Latin derivation of the abbreviation i.e. It is an abbreviation of the Latin words 'id est', which mean 'that is'. It (i.e.) is normally followed by a definition of what preceded it, for example, " the elephant is an example of a pachyderm, i.e., an animal with thick skin and nails resembling hooves," or, "Forests help provide us with books, i.e., paper is made of wood from trees."
Know the root of the term e.g. This is an abbreviation for the Latin words 'exempli gratia', which means 'for example'. This abbreviation introduces an illustration of whatever has just been said, e.g ., "One thing that will put on weight is a fatty food, e.g., fried dough."
Tips
When using these terms orally, try to say the sentence literally. Use the actual meaning instead of i.e. or e.g. If it makes sense like this, then it is probably correct, e.g., "Running will make you tired, that is , running will use up energy, which will make you tired.
It's best not to use i.e. or e.g. as actual words. When talking, just use the definitions, e.g., say 'that is' instead of i.e.
