"Bevo tè o caffè."

Translation: I drink tea or coffee.

How do you know which way the accent slants with the letter e?

[pierugofoz]

(I'm italian)
95% of italian words with accent use the left-facing accent (╰ ) (grave)

"Perché" (why/because), ventitré (twenty-three) use the right-facing accent (╯) (acuto), but IMHO few people in italy know the real difference in pronounciation

I would take more notice of the accents over the 'e' if I could see them better! Unfortunately my eyesight is not what it was and I can't see any difference! I can on the above answer as they are much bigger.

What is the difference between the two forms of "or"?

[dnovinc]

Are you referring to "o" and "oppure" ? If you are, there is one more "ovvero" :)
There is no grammatical difference between "o" and "oppure".
However if you use oppure than you are stressing the idea of choice, while by using "o" you're a bit more indifferent whether you'll choose tea or coffee.

On other hand "ovvero" would translate to "or rather"
