Russian spelling rule #1 states that ы never follows г, к, х, ж, ш, щ, or ч, and и takes its place.

This rule affects word endings constantly.

• The plural of книга is книги, since г requires и.
• After х, adjectives take -ий: hence тихий (quiet), never тыхый.
• The pronunciation stays the same after ж, ш, щ, ч, but spelling always uses и.

Learning this rule early helps you avoid common spelling mistakes in Russian.
