noun
Meaning 1
The vowel sound /iː/ in the words "green", "seem", "eve", and "eke". (The presence of a long vowel is often signaled in spelling by a silent e that follows it, as in the "eve" and "eke" examples here, or by the fact that a subsequent consonant is single rather than doubled, as for example in meting versus setting).
