ie versus eg
I've noticed recently, when citing personal experiences or giving examples in my replies here in AB, I've a tendency to preface my comments with "eg".
I since realised that perhaps in some cases "ie" might have been more appropriate.
My question, therefore, is how do I know which to use?
(I could probably google for the answer but that would make AB kinda superfluous wouldn't it?)
