U+0045 "E" Latin Capital Letter E is one of the most fundamental and frequently used letters in the Latin alphabet, serving as the fifth letter in English and many other languages. It originated from the Phoenician letter he, which represented a breathy consonant sound, and was later adapted by the Greeks as epsilon for the vowel sound /e/. As a direct inheritance from the Roman alphabet, this uppercase E is encoded in the ASCII standard at decimal 69, and it functions as a building block for countless written words, scientific notations, and mathematical symbols. Its simple yet iconic shape, consisting of a vertical stem with three equally spaced horizontal bars, has remained largely unchanged for millennia.
