id est
which in latin means "it is" or "that is to say"
and NO, "for example" is abbreviated "e.g." (exempli gratia--here is an example) NOT "i.e."
One should not list an example after "i.e.". Here are two correct uses:
You are stupid (i.e. dumb).
I need something sweet to eat (e.g. chocolate).

In Latin, i.e. stands for "id est" which translates to "that is".
