MIND YOUR ENGLISH

I vs Me
Mistakes made with the English pronouns I and me have been increasing exponentially for years. The difference is actually very simple – let me explain it to you.
I
I is the first person singular subject pronoun, which means that it refers to the person performing the action of a verb.
I want to go.
This is the one I like.
You and I need to get ready.
Tom and I are going to the movies.

Me
Me is an object pronoun, which means that it refers to the person that the action of a verb is being done to, or to whom a preposition refers.
David told me to leave.

He gave me ten dollars.
