I vs Me

I vs. me- The easiest way to know what to use is to say the sentence in your head without the other person.

 

 

I like it when it’s just me = Lori and I like it when it’s just her and me.

You’re more likely to use “I” at the beginning of the sentence (as the subject) and “me” at the end (as the object)

  • Who like when it’s just her and me?- Lori and I = Subject

  • What do Lori and I do-like it? = verb

  • What do Lori and I like?- when it’s just her and me= Object

Another good example of taking out the other person to figure out what to use:

I don’t know if you’re talking to her or I. (incorrect) take out her and you’ll see
I don’t know if you’re talking to I. Now it doesn’t sound right
I don’t know if you’re talking to me. That sounds right now add in the other person.
I don’t know if you’re talking to her or me. (correct)
