I have find the answer by goole
i.e. (from Latin "id est") means: that is (to say).
e.g. (again from Latin "exempli gratia") means: for example; for the sake of example.
Thank you very much!

hi
i.e.
The term i.e. means "id est" in Latin or "that is" in English. A trick that
I use: If you can replace "i.e." with "in other words" then you are using it
correctly. "I.e." is used to specify what your are trying to convey.
see the following actical about the i.e vs e.g
http://ancienthistory.about.com/od/abbreviations/f/ievseg.htm
hope it helps

Word Usage
e.g. or i.e.?
Do not confuse these two abbreviations, which mean different
things and have different origins. The abbreviation e.g.,
meaning "for or as an example," comes from the Latin
expression exempli gratia ("for example"). Use it when you
want to list a few typical examples of the thing mentioned:
I have the laboratory equipment, e.g., [not i.e.] beakers,
thermometers, and test tubes, that we need. Do not end a
list that starts with e.g. with etc. The abbreviation i.e.,
meaning "that is, that is to say," comes from the Latin
expression id est ("that is"). Use it when you want to give
a more precise description of the thing mentioned: The
hearing, i.e., [not e.g.] the preliminary hearing, is set
for noon Friday. Two periods punctuate e.g. and i.e. in U.S.
English, whereas they may be unpunctuated in British
English. Surround these abbreviations with commas.

"ie" means "For example". It is similar in usage to "比喻说". (I think they are the characters, not sure).

Sorry, I need to correct myself. I just checked with my Chinese
colleague to make sure I was getting my Chinese right, and he says 比如
is a better translation than 比喻。

characters "女毕".
