Please consider using a program other than BTC. There isn't evidence that it improves students' mathematical achievement. All the author looks at is what he calls "student engagement."

This was such a great talk! I'm excited that the recording is available now so I can share it with friends and colleagues who weren't able to go with me.

But this is just a simple analysis looking at letter location. When we account for 'ie' and 'ei' (and eigh) as digraphs (meaning that those letters together make a sound), the analysis changes a bit.
The 'ie' digraph only has twice as many words as 'ei' (325 vs 167).

A lower number means a word is more common. For example, you actually encounter the word 'their' much more frequently than the word 'believe'.
So, since the top words with 'e before i' are just more common, it probably seems like the 'i before e' rule fails more often.

Correct! Not a software engineer at all. @ryan.phonicsandstuff.com and I just dabble in technology. I love making spreadsheets, while he turns them into databases and the website.
