If you were reading and saw e.g. you would say for example? And what is another word for warranty besides insurance?

e.g literally translates to "for example", but people still pronounce it e.g and it's recognised either way as the same meaning. If I were reading and saw e.g I'd say e.g. Pronounced ee (rhymes with bee) gee (the first syllable of Jesus in UK/US English)

Another word for warranty is a contract or agreement. But warranty has a more specific meaning focussed on repairing an item you bought, if it breaks before it should be expected to, for a reason that isn't your fault. Many electrical items come with a warranty that lasts for a year or two that states, as long as you don't do anything silly with the appliance, if it breaks you can return it and get another for free or at a discount.

I have always thought of e.g. as ergo and I could have sworn that is what I was taught in school. As for the extra north east corner of Egypt, that is new to me. And I saw the word guarantee and swore it was spelled guarante.

Jump a "time line", there.
I've jumped a few in the past month; it always "feels" different at first.
It's those little details that you notice; like watching a movie you've seen a hundred times and the actors change.
I'll notice triple number sequences catch my eye; as far as I can tell I'm on timeline #111.
But this is just a "wild-ass-theory" (WAT) ;)

I noticed all three just this week. Either it`s MCI - mild cognitive impairment - or I dunno.... I have spent the last decade discussing every topic possible from every source knowable all day every day with people all over the globe. So it is strange that I should notice all of these in a few days. I just spent 90 minutes discussing Israel, Egypt, Gaza, Hamas, the Palestinians, iran and Iraq with an Israeli. And I do not know what Egypt looks like? I have written several books about the Bible - not that anyone reads them - ,too. Old age in middle age? I will have to remain ever vigilant from now on.

Thats interesting, about the number. Mine is 22. I came here to this country from the USA sitting in seat #22. I met my future wife on the 22nd. We got married - date set by the state - on the 22nd with 21 other couples (22). A year later on the 22nd we went to a restaurant and walked around for several minutes until she chose a table. Number 22. Its always there. And just late last night I was helping someone practice for a job interview that she has today and and before she hung up she said she really liked the question for the interviewer, What do you expect from me in the first nine months? - Question #22.
