Guest  +  1597 Wed, 02 Jul 03 03:29 AM 1. My boyfriend and I are going to the concert. 2. My boyfriend and me are going to the concert. I KNOW #1 is correct. My friend says #2 is correct. How do I explain to him that he is wrong? I know the error is incorrect pronoun usage. Guest Nouns, Pronouns

	Jacko  +  1600 Wed, 02 Jul 03 03:35 AM You're correct; the first one is the right one. You could easily tell him that if he removed "My boyfriend and," then you would have, "I [am] going to the concert." You definitely don't say "Me [am] going to the concert."

	maj  +  1607 Wed, 02 Jul 03 07:47 AM -My boyfriend is the subject in this sentence. -I is also the subject in this sentence -I is a subject pronoun ( I, you, he, she, it , we, you, they) -Me is an object pronoun (me, you, him, her, it, us, you, them) So if you have My boyfriend and _____ are going to the concert, you obviously need a subject pronoun. My boyfriend and I are going to the concert. maj Joined on Mon, Mar 31 2003 Senior Member 4,756 Nouns, Pronouns

	advoca  +  10693 Tue, 14 Oct 03 04:59 AM Unfortunately many people say "My boyfriend and me are going to the concert." But they are not speaking grammatically. If you are learning English, try and learn the correct way to speak. My boyfriend is going to the concert. I am going to the concert. Therefore, my boyfriend and I are going to the concert. advoca Joined on Fri, Oct 10 2003 New Member 28 Learning English

	lulumi227  +  10898 Thu, 16 Oct 03 12:10 PM I think that #1 is correct ."My boyfriend" is a subject in the sentence; however, "me" is an object."And" is a coordinating conjunction so you should use the subject "I" instead of "me". lulumi227 Joined on Wed, Oct 15 2003 New Member 04

	whl626  +  10906 Thu, 16 Oct 03 01:50 PM If more people use ' me ', maybe one day it will become universally accepted speech in this sentence Another eg : Who is there inside ? It is me ( I ) whl626 Joined on Sun, Aug 24 2003 Regular Member 882 Learn English every day
