Do you say my friend and I or my friend and me?
“My friend and I” is correct. However, colloquial speech (where grammar rules are often broken), “my friend and me” is sometimes used.
Is it proper to say me and my friend?
My friend and I or my friend and me? The answer is it depends. “My friend and I” would be the subject of the sentence whereas we say “my friend and me” when it is the object.
Is it ever grammatically correct to say me and?
You will certainly hear native speakers say, “Jenny and me,” and it may be acceptable in spoken English, but most traditional grammarians and English teachers will disapprove. Don’t use it in writing.
Which is correct as I or as me?
Both words are pronouns, but I is a subject pronoun while me is an object pronoun. So, in the sentence, “She and I went to the store,” the correct word to use would be I rather than me. Why? Because I is the subject of the sentence.
Is it grammatically correct to say John and I?
Using “I” is perfectly correct here, as John and I are the people who “are going to eat” – in other words, we are the subjects of the sentence. It would not, however, be correct to say, “John and me are going to eat fish pie at home this evening”.
What is the proper way to say me and someone?
Both can be correct. The rule is basically that you use the same form that you’d use if you were the only person involved. If you were talking about ownership of a car, you’d say “That car belongs to me”, or if you shared ownership of it, “That car belongs to my wife and me.”
What is the correct way to say me and someone?
It is the convention in English that when you list several people including yourself, you put yourself last, so you really should say “Someone and I are interested.” “Someone and I” is the subject of the sentence, so you should use the subjective case “I” rather than the objective “me”.
