English in 1 Minute, 'You and me' or 'You and I' - English In A Minute

'You and me' or 'You and I' - English In A Minute

Let's look at how to avoid confusion

between 'me' and 'I'.

Now, the main difference is simple.

Use 'I' when you are the subject of a clause.

And use 'me' when you are the object

Now, that's easy enough – but here is where

it starts to get more complicated.

If you've got two people, say 'Sam and me',

or should that be 'Sam and I'?

Well, this question is most important in formal

language – writing rather than speaking.

If you're using formal language, you need

to think whether you are the subject or the

object.

'Sam and I are making a video.'

'Tom and I are getting coffee.'

'If you've got a problem, talk to Sam or me.'

'You're going to be working with me and Tom.'

An easy way to check is to take out the other

person (sorry Sam).

Now it should be easy to see I should say

'I'm making a video', or

'if you've got a problem, talk to me.'

So, just remember that 'you' and 'I' are subjects,

while the objects are 'me' and 'you'.
