What words have a short e sound but are spelled with ai?

You're looking for words with a short "e" sound spelled "ai". This is a bit tricky, as "ai" usually makes a long "a" sound. However, there are a few exceptions:

* Said - This is the most common example.

* Again - This word has a short "e" sound, but it's a bit more subtle than "said".

There are a few other words that can be pronounced with a short "e" sound when they are part of a specific phrase, but these are less common and are usually considered dialectical or regional pronunciations.
