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

You'll encounter this rule in plurals and adjectives.

• Plurals: книга becomes книги (not книгы), because the stem ends in г.
• 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.

Once you internalise this pattern, Russian spelling feels more logical.
