About This Spelling List: u-e words - set 1

The long /u/ sound in these words is spelled with the letters u-e, where the silent e changes the vowel sound. These words are short but cover a range of meanings and uses.

For instance, a cube is a 3D shape with six equal sides, making it a common term in geometry. A mule is a hybrid animal, bred from a horse and a donkey, often associated with hard work. The word use works as both a noun and a verb, while fume can refer to vapours or express strong emotions like anger.
This list provides an excellent introduction to the u-e spelling pattern.
