Intuitive Grammar - Me, Myself, and I

Me and Him, She and I

Picture
Pronoun use seems to be often mixed up when used in a plural subject or object. It is quite common to hear sentences like: 

Her and me went to the store
Mom gave money to she and I.
 
There is an incredibly easy way to remember which pronoun(s) to use in a plural situation such as the ones above. Here's the cheat:


Picture
Simply say the sentence to yourself using only one of the subjects/objects, like this:

Her went to the store. Me went to the store.
Mom gave the money to she. Mom gave the money to I.

These are obviously not right when said apart and neither are they when put together. Instead, think of the right way to say them apart, then use those pronouns to put them back together in the plural, like this:

She went to the store. I went to the store. Therefore, She and I went to the store.
Mom gave the money to her. Mom gave the money to me. Therefore, Mom gave the money to her and me.

If you see a grammatical error or a spelling mistake, please correct the author nicely. Do not make fun of things like this especially since a person passed away. Please learn how to show respect to people who passed away. You would not want someone to make fun on you when you die, right? It is very offending and you are disrespecting not only the person who passed away, but also those people who Beatrice considers as part of her family and loved ones.

Well-done! I am really far off to see it, but I will not hesitate if I would have lived closer to it. They have surely done a wonderful job. It is truly lovely.

Certainly, feel of instructive organizations was altogether different previously in the event that we contrast it with current mood. Today, environment is great, flawless and clean and classes are extremely best in class embellished with excellent most recent furnishings.
